Song language: English
The Long Day Closes |
| No star is o’er the lake |
| Its pale watch keeping |
| The moon is half awake |
| Through gray mist creeping |
| The last red leaves fall round |
| The porch of roses |
| The clock hath ceased to sound |
| The long day closes |
| Sit by the silent hearth |
| In calm endeavour |
| To count the sounds of mirth |
| Now dumb for ever |
| Heed not how hope believes |
| And fate disposes: |
| Shadow is round the eaves |
| The long day closes |
| The lighted windows dim |
| Are fading slowly |
| The fire that was so trim |
| Now quivers lowly |
| Go to the dreamless bed |
| Where grief reposes; |
| Thy book of toil is read |
| The long day closes |
