The Day is Done Quotes

“I see the lights of the village
Gleam through the rain and the mist,
And a feeling of sadness comes o'ver me
That my soul cannot resist”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Day is Done

“A feeling of sadness and longing,
That is not akin to pain,
And resembles sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain.

Come, read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling,
And banish the thoughts of day.

‘The Day is Done”
― HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW, The Day is Done
