'Tis eventide the noisy brook is hushedA
Or murmurs only as a tired childB
Worn out with play the tangled weeds lie stillC
Within the marshy hollow Quaint and darkD
The willows bend above the brooklet's tideE
Reflecting shadowy images thereinF
The dark browed trees with faces to the skyG
Shut out the light that fades in crimson linesH
Along the western sky And yonder shadeI
Of purple marks the cloud the storm god ridesJ
In moods of angry fireK
-
The woods are filledL
With wild wood blossoms drinking in the dewM
Their scented breath is sweeter than the maid'sN
Who stands at eve and drinks in love and hopeO
From every budding flowerK
-
All day the sunP
With fiery breath has held his hot long reignQ
The leaves have quivered 'neath his burning gazeR
And all the flowers have drooped yet now the moonS
His pale young bride awaking from her spellT
Of sweet day dreams arises in the dusky EastU
And sweeping back the clouds that dim her crownV
Of stars floods all the world with holy lightW
-
Oh welcome night the flowers love their queenX
Yea better than their king for he is fierceY
And warm and drinks the jeweled dew drops allZ
Her hand is cool and soothing 'neath its spellT
They sink to restful slumberK
-
Bless'd nightW
When all he world's asleep and thought can flyG
On tireless wings from sky to sky when freeA2
From earthly chains the soul immortal feelsB2
Its throbbing freedomC2
-
Bless'd nightW
When God looks down from every shining starD2
And breathes in every dew gemmed flower when faithE2
From her rock bound temple on the hillsF2
His everlasting glory sings Oh welcome nightW
Thy beauty holds the spell that wakes to lifeG2
All things immortal Crowned be thou with lightW
Eternal as the sun whose radiance wakes the dayH2
