1. A moon dreams in the haze of the sky
Faded in splendor from ceaseless vigil

2. Mocking, aloof, whenever yearning stirs
And ebbs again within my heart

3. Vain the heart that wanders in the night
In vain it strives for peace in aimless flight

4. The night, however long, comes to an end
But the sea of cares has no shore in sight
