At Last the Daylight Fadeth
Translation of Frances Hellman
A
With all its noise and glare;
Refreshing peace pervadeth
The darkness everywhere.
The woods now wake alone;
What daylight ne’er discovers,
Their songs to the night make known.
I ne’er can tell to thee,
To whisper it now I am pining,—
Oh, come and hearken to me!
