Its That Another Night
The sky clear blue the stars bright the moon’s full
Heavy snow’s frozen and the brook’s as always late;
Chilled pairs on warm beds fast asleep
Worn birds in willows’ holes, feathery nests,
Calves and cocks on their straw-beds.
Come-on my love come right away,
It’s that another night, right
For another, O, saintly event.
Let’s live this lovely night with
The lonely dogs of my street;
And see! How they bark and Why.
I’ll rub their neck, and you will serve bones
I’ll love that old *****, and you that young dog.
