Ah! why because the dazzling sun, has restored our earth to joy.
Have you departed everyone, And left a desert sky?

All through the night Your glorious eyes were gazing down in mine.
And with a full hearts thankful sighs, I blessed that watch divine.

I was at peace and drank your beams
As they were life to me, And revelled in my changeful dreams,
Like petrel on the sea.

Blood red he rose and arrrow straight,
His fierce beams struck my brow,
The soul of nature, sprang, elate,
But mine sank sad and low!

I turned me toward my pillow then,
To call back night and see.
Your words of solemn light, again,
Throb with my heart and me!

O, Stars and Dreams And gentle night!
Oh, night and stars return
And hide me form the hostile light.
That does not warm but burn.

That drains the blood of suffering men.
Drinks tears instead of dew.
Please, Let me sleep through this blinding reign.
And only wake with you!
