'Tis Night Songtext
von Morar

Light am I, that I were night!
But it is my lonesomeness
To be begirt with light!
That I were dark and nightly!

′Tis night: that I have to be light!
And thirst for the nightly!
'Tis night: now doth my longing break forth
in me as a fountain

And lonesomeness

For speech do I long


Light am I, that I were night!
But it is my lonesomeness
To be begirt with light!
That I were dark and nightly!

′Tis night: that I have to be light!
And thirst for the nightly!
'Tis night: now doth my longing break forth
in me as a fountain

And lonesomeness

But I live in mine own light
I drink again into myself
The flames that break forth from me

The flames that break forth from me
