Into the night
In to the night
They marched
And marched
Their steps on cobble-stones were heard
And faded soon as went.
How large the oarless barge
And pilot-less it roams
Over the silvern sea this night!
How calm and bright
The silvern waves glisten and light
With every lap, with every wave
This night!
Emmanuel George Cefai
