| 102. Night Song at Amalfi |
| I ASKED the heaven of stars | |
| What I should give my love— | |
| It answered me with silence, | |

| I asked the darkened sea | 5 |
| Down where the fishes go— | |
| It answered me with silence, | |
| Silence below. | |
| Oh, I could give him weeping, | |
| Or I could give him song— | 10 |
| But how can I give silence | |
| My whole life long? |
