Harlem Night Song by Langston Hughes

Harlem Night Song
by Langston Hughes

Come,
Let us roam the night together
Singing.


I love you.


Across
The Harlem roof-tops
Moon is shining
Night sky is blue.
Stars are great drops
Of golden dew.
In the cabaret
The jazz-band's playing.


I love you.


Come,
Let us roam the night together
Singing.
