When I walk in the evening
Reynaldo Hahn
When I walk in the evening
Through the dreaming forest,
Always beside me
Your loving image walks as well.
Is that not your white veil there?
Is that not your sweet face?
Or could it be just moonlight
Glinting through the gloomy pine trees?
Are these my own tears
That I hear flowing quietly?
Or could it actually be you,
Coming to weep beside me?
