Dark night <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> soul<br />
One dark night,<br />
fired with love’s urgent longings<br />
- ah <strong>the</strong> sheer grace! –<br />
I went out unseen,<br />
my house being now all stilled.<br />
In darkness, and secure,<br />
by <strong>the</strong> secret ladder disguised,<br />
-ah <strong>the</strong> sheer grace!in<br />
darkness and concealment,<br />
my house being now all stilled.<br />
trAnsLAtiOns<br />
On that glad night,<br />
in secret, for no one saw me,<br />
nor did I look at anything,<br />
with no o<strong>the</strong>r light or guide<br />
than <strong>the</strong> one that burned in my heart.<br />
from Dark Night <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Soul, St. John <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Cross (1542-1592)<br />
