In the night of weariness [German translation]

In the night of weariness

let me give myself up to sleep

without struggle,

resting my trust upon thee.

Let me not force my flagging spirit

into a poor preparation for thy worship.

It is thou who drawest the veil of night

upon the tired eyes of the day

to renew its sight

in a fresher gladness of awakening.

• Artist:Rabindranath Tagore
