O darkness, if in thy arms I could rest for a while And with these earthly eyes See thy dim smile
Maid of twilight, lass of duskfall Hang the moon on the sky's arch Soothe the weight of a darkling day Croon me into the slumber:
"Rock here in the birch's lap Swing in the manor of wind Lay down your weary head Let the blue stars darken"
"Rock here in the birch's lap Swing in the manor of wind Lay down your weary head Let the blue stars darken"
O silence, if in thy cradle I could sway like a child Hear the amending song, The sighing of the shades
Maid of twilight, lass of duskfall Serve thy goblet to me Let me drink to the last drop The sweet opiate of the dreams:
"Rock here in the birch's lap Swing in the manor of wind Lay down your weary head Let the blue stars darken"
Ours is the silence, The echo old ageless night A gleam in the blackest of streams, One fleeing moment
For vain is all the toil and trouble, Vain is all the heartbreak In the end I'll find my solace In an earthen cradle
So good night
