Peaceful evening sinks down upon the land
Arnold Franz Walter Schoenberg
Peaceful evening sinks down upon the land;
Gently Nature begins to slumber.
Around her floats the tender cover of dusk,
And the lovely one smiles,
Smiles like a slumbering child in its father's arms,
As he, full of love, bends down to her.
His divine eyes linger upon her, and his breath wafts
Across her face.
