 wind	  whisper,	  and	  the	  little	  birds?	  They	  whisper	  the	  world	  into	  slumber.	  	  You,	  my	  desires,	  that	  stir	  in	  my	  heart	  without	  rest	  or	  peace!	  You	  longings	  that	  move	  my	  heart,	  When	  will	  you	  rest,	  when	  will	  you	  sleep?	  By	  the	  whispering	  of	  the	  wind,	  and	  of	  the	  little	  birds?	  You	  yearning	  desires,	  when	  will	  you	  fall	  asleep?	  	  Alas,	  when	  no	  longer	  into	  the	  golden	  distance	  does	  my	  spirit	  hurry	  on	  dream-­‐wings,	  when	  no	  more	  on	  the
