La Nuit

Hymn to the Night
by Jean-Philippe Rameau

O Night

Bring to
The Earth

The enchanting calm
Of your mystery

The shadow which follows you
Is so sweet

It is such a sweet concert
Your voices chanting hope

Your power is so great
Transforming all into a dream

O Night

O leave still
To the Earth
The enchanting calm
Of your mystery

The shadow which follows you
Is so sweet

Is there anything more beautiful
Than a dream?

Is there any truth
Sweeter
Than hope?
