English.png English text

Bright star of eve, that sendest thy softening ray,
Through the dim twilight of this nether sky,
I hail thy beam like rising of the day!
Hast thou a home for me when I shall die?

Is there a spot within thy radiant sphere,
Where love, and faith, and truth again may dwell,
Where I may seek the rest I find not here,
And clasp the cherished forms I loved so well?
