Good news, my soul!
Good news for thee!
The supreme hush of the night,
The sweet loneliness that love needs,
For thee, my soul! at last!
The din and clatter of the day has died,
Nothing stirs now, not a leaf drop is heard.
Make no sound now, awake no one!
The city sleeps,
a hundred feuds are buried in sleep.
In death silence sleeps at night
the restless mind of man.
At last the dust has settled, my soul!
And all is tranquil calm.
- Bhai Vir Singh
