Auden's lullaby is about love.
lullaby poem:
My love, put your mortal head
on my unfaithful arm to sleep
The worrying youth
will not stand the time and fever
and will eventually burn out the beauty of the individual
The grave will prove that she is ephemera and unlucky
But at this moment, Until dawn
let this stunner sleep in my arms
She's just a guilty mortal.
She's beautiful in my eyes.
There is no boundary between soul and body.
Venus's greenery is tolerant and ecstasy.
Lovers lying on this greenery are drunk in their usual dizziness.
Venus reveals to them
. However, through abstract understanding
, I get a kind of sensual fanaticism
the quality of firmness and the loyalty of love
As the midnight bell rings
As the oscillating sound waves disappear
Fashionable fanatics show off their knowledge
and make annoying noises
Every card predicts a bad omen
Every price must be paid off
. All will not be lost
Beauty dies with midnight and illusion
When the dawn and the wind are cool
Blowing on your sleeping head
I hope it shows a beautiful day
Let your eyes and heartbeat bless it
and be satisfied with this mundane world
The boring noon makes you feel full
The control of involuntary force
