Musician's or Publisher's Notes

O boundless, boundless evening

O boundless, boundless evening.
Soon the glow of long hills on the skyline will be gone,
Like clear dream country now, richhued by sun.

O boundless, boundless evening
Where the cornfields throw the scattered daylight
Back in an aureole.
Swallows high up are singing, very small.

On every meadow glitters their swift flight,
In woods of rushes and where tall masts stand in brilliant bays.

Yet in ravines beyond
Between the hills already nests the night.
