Haste, traveler, haste! the night comes on

1

Haste, traveler, haste! the night comes on,And many a shining hour is gone;The storm is gathering in the west,And thou art far from home and rest.

2

Then linger not in all the plain,Flee for thy life, the mountain gain;Look not behind, make no delay,O speed thee, speed thee on thy way.
