...
The night, in silence, under many a star;
The ocean shore, and the husky whispering wave, whose voice I know;
And the soul turning to thee, O vast and well-veil'd Death,
And the body gratefully nestling close to thee.

la nuit, en silence, sous mainte étoile ;
Le bord de l'océan, et la vague chuchotant d'un ton rauque, dont je connais la voix ;
Et l'âme se tournant vers toi, ô mort vaste et bien dissimulée,
Et le corps se blottissant avec reconnaissance contre toi.
