How does it reach me, the forest wind that lulls the palms at night?
What could it teach me, the forest wind that shakes the hearth-fire bright?
What thing does it want, the forest wind that taps at the pane, then flies?
What sight doth haunt the forest wind that it warns with fearful cries?
What have I done to the forest wind that it tears my soul with dread?
What, to me, is the forest wind, in sum, that so many tears I shed?
