"The Night has a thousand eyes,
And the Day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.
The mind has a thousand eyes,
And the heart but one;
Yet the light of a whole life dies
When love is done."
~ Francis William Bourdillon was a British poet and translator. He is known mostly for his poetry, and in particular for the single short poem "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes".
