Night, O night

How is your embrace so amusingly dark?
That wakes an owl and silences the lark
Under your shade all shadows are lost
Except the Shadow that lured Dr Faust

Night,O night

I wonder how are you so serenely sinister?
Much like the craving whence I kissed her?
When I hug you my wounds become afresh
Alas!You are my muse unknown to the flesh

Night ,O night

Why are you sullen and so full of gloom?
Don't you smile when moss roses bloom?
It makes me wonder every single morn
Why is your refuge the safest to mourn?
