by Vasile Alecsandri (1821 - 1890)

Noaptea profundă
Language: Romanian (Română) 
Noaptea profundă 
In ea cufundă 
Pământul june, reinflorit, 
Bolta senină 
Blândă lumină 
Varsă din sânul sau aurit. 

Şi totul tace 
Divină pace 
Peste natură domneşte lin, 
Dar o furtună 
Geme şi tună 
In al meu suflet sdrobit de chin. 

Ah! nici e rază 
Nu luminează 
Noaptea profundă ce m'a cuprins, 
Inima-i ruptă 
De lunga luptă 
Ce-amor şi ură crud au incins!
