James Joyce

Sleep Now, O Sleep Now

Sleep Now, O Sleep Now
 
Sleep now, O sleep now,
O you unquiet heart!
A voice crying “Sleep now”
Is heard in my heart.
 
The voice of the winter
Is heard at the door.
O sleep, for the winter
Is crying “Sleep no more.”
 
My kiss will give peace now
And quiet to your heart ——
Sleep on in peace now,
O you unquiet heart!
