Good Night, Dear Heart, by American composer Dan Forrest, is set to a text that Mark Twain inscribed on the grave of his young daughter, Susy Clemens. Adapted from a heroic poem by Roger Richardson, the text and music speak to the grief of a parent losing a child.
Good Night, Dear Heart
Words by Mark Twain, Music by Dan Forrest
Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.
