Re​-​Twilight

lyrics

TWILIGHT.

THE twilight is sad and cloudy,
The wind blows wild and free,
And like the wings of sea-birds
Flash the white caps of the sea.

But in the fisherman’s cottage
There shines a ruddier light,
And a little face at the window
Peers out into the night.

Close, close it is pressed to the window,
As if those childish eyes
Were looking into the darkness,
To see some form arise.

And a woman’s waving shadow
Is passing to and fro,
Now rising to the ceiling,
Now bending low.

What tale do the roaring ocean,
And the night-wind, bleak and wild,
As they best at the casement,
Tell to that little child?

And why do the roaring ocean,
And night-wind, wild and bleak,
As they beat at the heart of the mother,
Drive the colour from her cheek?
