In a still night under southern stars,
Sleeping in a rough farm shed,
From neighbouring farms
Across the valley, the dogs bark.
In our home city, the sound
Of trams rattling down the road
Blends into the background noise.
But next door, the dogs bark.
In this city, both ancient and new,
With moonlight streaming
In our window across the tiled
Rooftops, the dogs bark.
