If the day is done Tenor 226
Musik: Vytautas Miškinis (1954)
Text: Rabindranath Tagore (1583-1625)
If the day is done, if birds sing no more,
the wind, if the wind has flagged tired,
if the day is done, if birds sing no more,
the wind has tired, if the wind has tired,
then drow the veil darkness thick
even as thou hast, even as thou hast
wrapt the earth with the coverlet of sleep
and tenderly of sleep and tenderly
closed the petals drooping lotus at dusk.
If the day is done, if birds sing no more,
the wind, if the wind has flagged tired,
if the day is done, if the day is done,
day is done,
