Summary

Vítězslav Hálek The Soul Of A Century — Evening songs (1943)

Upon God’s world, all’s stilled and hushed
Except the heart’s glad tones;
The Lord only knows why this alone
Ne’er with exhaustion groans.
Sleep overtakes the very thought,
Night follows day’s loud din;
Only the heart keeps e’er awake
To guard our Love within.
