WILLOW-SONG.
Night and Day,
Get you gone from me away!
Of Life's smooth and of its rough
Tired am I. Enough, enough
Have I had of dark and light,
Day and Night.
Get you gone from me away!
Of Life's smooth and of its rough
Tired am I. Enough, enough
Have I had of dark and light,
Day and Night.

Light and Love,
Get you back to Heaven above!
Weary am I of you both:
In the one there is no troth,
In the other no delight;
Love and Light.
Get you back to Heaven above!
Weary am I of you both:
In the one there is no troth,
In the other no delight;
Love and Light.
Life and Death,
Leave your battle for my breath!
Both I hold you nothing worth:
This a slave to second birth,
That is sad with thought and strife,
Death and Life.
Leave your battle for my breath!
Both I hold you nothing worth:
This a slave to second birth,
That is sad with thought and strife,
Death and Life.
Nought and Sleep,
Come and gulph me in your deep!
You, to you alone I'm fain.
Come and cover me from pain;
Shelter me from sorry thought,
Sleep and Nought!
Come and gulph me in your deep!
You, to you alone I'm fain.
Come and cover me from pain;
Shelter me from sorry thought,
Sleep and Nought!
