Weep no more, Starless night;
Why do you long for the light so?
Look to the eternal darkness
Encompassing the burning earth.
Yet my cold blind eyes
View not your weeping
that now lies sleeping.
Sleep in dreaminess,
Resting as only peace allows.
Doesn’t the darkness fall smiling
When the sun’s wrath has set?
Rest you then, rest, weary eyes,
Succumb not in weeping
while she lies sleeping.
