In fading light
Life dances, twists, and crazily rushes
Impudent and shrill, while
Night rises
Appeasing all, even hunger
Hiding all, even shame
The Poet whispers to himself:
Finally!
While body and soul
Long desperately for rest
My heart seethes with deathly dreams
Let me lie on my back
And enshroud myself in your curtains
O nourishing darkness!
End of the Day was written by Ned Rorem & Charles Baudelaire.
Ned Rorem released End of the Day on Fri Sep 18 1998.
