The Night Has a Thousand Eyes


The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.

The mind has a thousand eyes,
And the heart but one;
Yet the light of a whole life dies
When love is done.


By: Francis William Bourdillon (Born March 22, 1852; died January 13, 1921)
