O night

NafisaSB

O night, take pity upon my plight

And encircle me in your dark shawl

O night, do not go out of sight

O night, do hear my call

Tired of the world, and weary of man

Sick of the way man cruelties does plan

I beseech you, o night, to stop in mid-flight

After all, it’s a long way to morn, and light..

Night, you pass me in a flash

And I feel the world’s cruel whiplash

Never shall I commit an act that is rash

Never shall I sell my soul for cash.

Night, touch me by the magic wand that’s always in your hand

Night, grant me dreams about the golden river and sand

Use every bait, that is up to date

But do not in my face, bang your huge and heavy gate..

O you, master of sleep and mistress of dreams

Why do you let tears from my eyes stream

Night , oh night, it’s not too late

Dispel all my fears, and show me the good traits
