[Verse] As everything quiets down Birds in the foliage hidden Down the end of the avenue Small boats mute and adrift [Bridge] Utensils idle on the set table Evening in Trieste falls [Chorus] Shadows spread in silent folds Corners of homes in here and out Serene the silence softly speaks Returning without a path [Verse] Repeat the silence once again Birds still in their leafy homes At the end of the avenue Boats rock gently to and fro [Bridge] All the set tables resting Evening whispers low [Chorus] Shadows spread in silent folds Corners of homes in here and out Serene the silence softly speaks Returning without a path
