O NIGHT, BE LONGByN. KOUCHAKO Night, be long—long as an endless year!Descend, thick darkness, black and full of fear!To-night my heart’s desire has been fulfilled—My love is here at last—a guest concealed!Dawn, stand behind seven mountains—out of sight,Lest thou my loved one banish with thy light;I would for ever thus in darkness restSo I might ever clasp him to my breast.

O Night, be long—long as an endless year!
Descend, thick darkness, black and full of fear!
To-night my heart’s desire has been fulfilled—
My love is here at last—a guest concealed!
Dawn, stand behind seven mountains—out of sight,Lest thou my loved one banish with thy light;I would for ever thus in darkness restSo I might ever clasp him to my breast.
Dawn, stand behind seven mountains—out of sight,
Lest thou my loved one banish with thy light;
I would for ever thus in darkness rest
So I might ever clasp him to my breast.
