An Anthology of Czechoslovak Literature/A Mood (Sova)
A Mood
Soughed my native wood:
I should weep, I should weep
If I but could.
Beneath each heavy bough.
The evening seems to drag its broken wings
Over the earth now.
And what is that dry chuckling sound?
With seven-league strides, O my soul,
Whither are you bound?
Once Again Shall We Return (1900)
