The Night Visiting Song 
The night has passed, love, I can no longer tarry The tempest's rages I must obey I must away, love, without a slumber Into the arms of the deep. 
When he came to his true love's dwelling He sat down upon a stone He whispered softly through her window "Does my true love lie alone?" 
She lifted her head from her lily-white pillow She lifted the sheets from off her breast She whispered softly through her window "Who is disturbing my night's rest?" 
"It's I, it's I, your own true lover Open the door and let me in For I am tired, love, likewise I'm weary I am wet unto the skin." 
She got up with the greatest of pleasure She opened the door and let him in They lay all night in each other's arms Till the long night was passed and gone. 
When the long night was passed and over When the cocks began to crow He hugged and kissed her, and then he left her He mounted his horse, and away did go. 
The night has passed, love, I can no longer tarry The tempest's rages I must obey I must away, love, without a slumber Into the arms of the deep.
