The Exquisite Hour

L'Heure exquise

Composed by R. Hahn. Sung by Susan Graham.



L’Heure exquise 
Paul Verlaine 1870

The white moon
Glows in the woods;
From each branch
Comes a voice
Beneath the mist...
O my beloved...

The pond reflects,
A deep mirror,
The silhouette
Of the black willow
Where the wind weeps...
It is time to dream.

A vast and tender
Peacefulness
Seems to descend
From the heavens
Irisdescent starlight...
This is the exquisite hour.
