In America, Frost is universally respected. In his life, he won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature four times, which is the most prestigious award in America.
Know your intimate friends at night.
I am a person who is familiar with the night.
I walked out and came back in the rain.
I walked through the farthest city light.
I have seen the saddest city road.
I passed the watchman on patrol.
Drop my eyes.
Unwilling to explain.
I thought I knew that night a long time ago.
I went out in the rain and came back in the rain.
I crossed the border illuminated by street lamps.
I think the alleys in the city are the worst.
I passed the night watchman knocking at the door,
I didn't want to talk much, so I lowered my eyes.
I stood still and stopped the sound of footsteps.
When there was an interrupted cry in the distance
A house from another street.
But not to call me back or say goodbye;
But also at an incredible height.
A luminous clock on the sky background
Declaring that time is not wrong or right.
I am a person who is familiar with the night.
I stopped, and I couldn't hear my footsteps anymore.
Go up the roof from another street.
There was a broken cry,
That's not asking me to go back or say goodbye;
In a higher place far from the world,
There is a clock hanging and flashing,
It claims that the time is good and incorrect,
I thought I knew that night a long time ago.
