Even Song
Here , beside a clear deep lake , I lay on the grass , half awake . The setting sun doth shine Casting shadows where I I rest recline .
The evening birds dart here and there
Their cooing sounds you can hear
And from the sky serene and far ,
Appear some evening stars.
Far away , across the meadow and plain ,
You can hear the even songs' refrain !
Up the hills , along the glistening beaches
Sleeps the mountains for ages .
As I lay here enjoying the evening breeze . Here I have found my hermitage of peace . Then I dream of you striding towards me . The moonbeams in yours eyes , I see .
Birds have settled on their perches in the quiet mist . Softly they sing to us their songs of the mist . I know this is all a dream .
Like the flickering shadows and the moon-beams .
