1. Save my eyes from staying up late
Save my heart from overthinking

2. And from a long night that
Does not exchange length for brevity

3. I say, when my night is clothed
In the garb of clouds and rain

4. And sight strays into a night
With no stars or moon

5. Does this night not have a dawn
That lights the eyes of people

6. Does the rooster have no news
Does the rooster leave no trace

7. When will I truly see
My long night for what it is

8. To me, a sweet night of intimacy
Equals but a glimpse of sight
