Song of the Night at Daybreak

All my stars forsake me,
And the dawn-winds shake me:
Where shall I betake me?

Whither shall I run
Till the set of the sun,
Till the day be done?

To the mountain-mine,
To the boughs o’ the pine,
To the blind man’s eyne,

To a brow that is
Bowed upon the knees,
Sick with memories.
