Ai Hua
"Sun of the Sleepless"
"Sun of the Sleepless
Sun of the sleepless! melancoly star!
Whose tearful beam glows tremlously far!
That show'st the darknes thou canst not dispel,
How like art thou to joy remember'd well!
So gleams the past, the light of other days,
Which shines, but warms not with its powerless rays;
A night-beam Sorrow watcheth to behold,
Distinct, but distant - clear - but, oh how cold!"
Byron
