SILENT!

Konstantin Schröder(1808-1868)

Silent! She sleeps. - Slowly fragile
    flight of stars yonder rolls. - 
    Evening wind, lull!
    To dreams enchanted sap!
                        Silent, silent, silent!

Silent! She sleeps content. -
    Rose dear, deliriously
    your flavouring scent dissolve,
    to your gentle grace submerge!
                        Silent, silent, silent!

Silent! She sleeps, a hymn tender,
    pined for with eternal
    longing. Oh, in rest
    sleep, beloved in peace!
                        Silent, silent, silent!



Vait! has been translated from the page 133 of the anthology Jo valkenee kaukainen ranta: Suomalaisia runoja(1989), which was edited by Hannu Sarala.
