| Notes | The speaker of the poem hears the crying of an infant at night, which awakens him. There is an acknowledgment in the poem that two-thirds of humanity live in poverty at the time of the coming of the new millennium. The infant's crying also reminds the speaker of his homeland, which he cannot yet return to. |
