Green meadows
Language: English
Thro' meadows green I wander'd, in the dusk, Beside the silent stream; By shaded paths, in woodlands darkening, I long for one apart. O evening fair with skies of blue above, O starry night, O moon of silver light, My aching heart doth yearn! Lovely night, thou art my own- Ah! must I love thee alone?
