As tiredness comes and bids me sleep
And eyelids start to close
The night-time train arrives at last
On tracks of sweet repose
Where calm and soft tranquillity
Attest to peacefulness
And off towards the land of dreams
I drift in quietness
From consciousness to slumber vale
Past stations gently creep
In sprinklings of a magic sand
And breaths so very deep
Past fields of dormant memories
To hills of nonchalance
In oceans waves of rock-a-bye
To deserts without glance
The night-train pushes on with grace
With still and serene guise
In placidity that comforts still
To morning and sunrise.
