What land of Silence, br Where pale stars shine br On apple-blossom br And dew-drenched vine, br Is yours and mine? br br The silent valley br That we will find, br Where all the voices br Of humankind br Are left behind. br br There all forgetting, br Forgotten quite, br We will repose us, br With our delight br Hid out of sight. br br The world forsaken, br And out of mind br Honour and labour, br We shall not find br The stars unkind. br br And men shall travail, br And laugh and weep; br But we have vistas br Of Gods asleep, br With dreams as deep.
