The Coming of Spring

By Vasily Zhukovsky (1783–1852)

DEEP silence in the sky;

The moon mysteriously

Through filmy haze is sinking;

The Star of Love is winking

Above the darkling hill,

And in the abyss so still

Things formless, fascinating,

Come flying, animating

The silence of the night,—

They bring the Spring’s delight.
