Serenity of the Night

Serenity of the Night.

I look at the stars twinkling,

Calmness to me which bring .

The serenity of the sky leaves me in a trance,

And it seems that the moon gives me a look askance.

It asks me then ,

Why, I always am in my one den?

Why I never come out to see,

The peace that the night brings to me.

And so I look at it every night,

For it lifts up my mood and makes me light.

It makes shine brighter than the day,

From the raging sea it brings me to bay.
