Good-night? ah! no; the hour is ill
<br>
Which severs those it should unite;
<br>
Let us remain together still,
<br>
Then it will be good night.
<br>

<br>
How can I call the lone night good,
<br>
Though thy sweet wishes wing its flight?
<br>
Be it not said, thought, understood —
<br>
Then it will be--good night.
<br>

<br>
To hearts which near each other move
<br>
From evening close to morning light,
<br>
The night is good; because, my love,
<br>
They never say good-night.
