The owl sings
English translation ©
Hugo Brady
Come!
Over the woods the summer night shines serene, and the owl sings.
Come, I want to tell you what I have never said before.
And on the path the stars bloom, those magical flowers.
Let us go forth together, and there in the thicket I will tell you
Why I wept one sad evening, when you were not there.
Let us go forth together.
A mystery invites us,
Listen: the owl sings.

Let us go forth together.
A mystery invites us,
Listen: the owl sings.
