Let us go then, you and I<\/em><\/p>\n

when the evening is spread out against the sky,<\/em><\/p>\n

let us listen to the symphony of frogs<\/p>\n

and the rustling song of leaves upon the trees.<\/p>\n

Let us revel in the starry Milky Way,<\/p>\n

and kneel in dewy grass upon our knees.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let our glad hearts rejoice at this sweet world,<\/p>\n

at fragrant flowers, trailing vines, and touch<\/p>\n

with reverent fingers the crimson roses, but not too much.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And let us sit and swing a little while<\/p>\n

under the moon’s glad glowing light.<\/p>\n

And when the evening starts to chill,<\/p>\n

we’ll go inside,<\/p>\n

and keep in our hearts<\/p>\n

the treasure of this night.<\/p>\n
