Through night, I was lonely,
through night I was lonely, alone all the day,
through night I was lonely, alone all the day,
in teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
Through night I was lonely, alone all the day,
in teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.

I was the river, the storm was I, the wave's crest, too,
I was the river, the storm was I, the wave's crest, too,
I was the river, the storm was I, the wave's crest, too,
I drank myself,
I drank myself, thirsty for ages, I alone knew.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.

No heart in the world to hear my whisper's call,
No heart in the world to hear my whisper's call,
No heart in the world to hear my whisper's call,
Every echo, every heartbeat,
Every echo, every heartbeat, I, alone, heard all.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.

Why shunning, traveler? Breathe, take a pause,
Why shunning, traveler? Breathe, take a pause,
Why shunning, traveler? Breathe, take a pause,
A withered tree today,
A withered tree today, your shade tomorrow, I was.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
Through night, I was lonely, alone all the day,
in teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
In teeming cities, like myself, I alone stayed.
