PRESENTATION OUTLINE
DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT,
Old age
SHOULD BURN AND RAVE AT CLOSE OF DAY;
Rage, rage
AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT.
THOUGH WISE MEN
AT THEIR END KNOW DARK IS RIGHT,
BECAUSE THEIR WORDS HAVE FORKED NO LIGHTNING THEY
DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT.
GOOD MEN, THE LAST WAVE BY, CRYING HOW BRIGHT
THEIR FRAIL DEEDS MIGHT HAVE DANCED IN A GREEN BAY,
RAGE, RAGE
Against THE DYING OF THE LIGHT.
WILD MEN WHO CAUGHT AND SANG THE SUN IN FLIGHT,
AND LEARN, too late,
THEY GRIEVED IT ON ITS WAY,
DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT.
Grave men, near death,
WHO SEE WITH BLINDING SIGHT
BLIND EYEs COULD BLAZE
LIKE METEORS AND BE GAY,
Rage, rage
AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT.
And you, my father,
THERE ON THAT SAD HEIGHT,
CURSE, BLESS, ME NOW WITH
YOUR FIERCE TEARS, I PRAY.
DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT.
Rage, rage
AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT.
