Donald Jeffrey Hayes, "Nocturne" (1927)
O twilight breeze
Scarcely bend slightly
O silver trees:
Night glides slowly down hill ... down stream
Bringing a myriad star-twinkling dream. ....
Softly blow lightly
O twilight breeze
Scarcely bend slightly
O silver trees:
Night will spill sleep in your day weary eye
While a soft yellow moon steals down the sky. ...
Softly blow
Scarcely bend
So ....!
Lullaby. ......
