Vespers bell tolls days departure
resounding it's plaintive knell
the cowherd drives his cattle homewards
as sunlight bids a fading farewell.

(Chorus:)
Warm Afterglow, how discreetly you flow
casting twilight's halo, on the dimming day.
Calm Afterglow, bathe each hill and hedgerow
in a scarlet shadow, slipping slowly grey.

Shirehorse ploughs one final furrow
gaping nostrils snorting steam,
the yearling bows her head in slumber
while Sandman spurs a world to dream.

(Chorus)

Advent of night,
soothing sight,
seamans delight.

Bustling woodland slows to stillness,
quiet save for the blackbirds cry
a crimson aura braids the skyline
urging languid day to die.

(Chorus)
