Twilight
Slowly the sun is hiding Behind the mountain peaks The twilight light is resting Over the tops of trees
The doves and the sparrows Are returning to their nest The rabbits in their burrows In peace, are taking rest
The flowers fall silent Below the trees they lie Their sweet mild fragrance Is filling the air with joy
Soon the night will join With darkness in the woods Alone the moon will shine In sky clear of clouds
