Calling for you in the dreary night
Hearing phantom footsteps on the stairs.
Looking for your face, without a light

My  faint hope,to lose,eradicate,
Makes me search once more and everywhere
I’m calling for you in the ghastly night

Is there any name  for my dull state?
Worn out seeking  who is never here
Looking for your face, oh send  more  light

How can I complain about my fate
When   little children’s  souls by loss are bared?
I’m crying for you in this long, doomed night

My  massive nerves twist  like the carrot’s root
As men enjoy  their   blood sport, kill sweet hares
Haunted by  your face, I need no light

Bring new life, spring up, is  this life fair?
What’s to  come hangs on what’s been  made down here
Calling for you in the moonlit night
Looking for your face in its soft light
