I hope you will find a moment of calm listening to this wonderful piece, here performed on celesta instead of piano.
Beautiful and melancholical. To quote the poem that inspired this piece: "Au calme clair de lune triste et beau": under the beautiful and sad moonshine...
Clair de lune is the 3rd movement of the Suite Bergamasque (1890) by French composer Claude Debussy (1862-1928).
Debussy drew inspiration from the Symbolist poets. In this case, the inspiration was the poem "Clair de Lune" by Paul Verlaine (1844-1896).

Votre âme est un paysage choisi
Que vont charmant masques et bergamasques
Jouant du luth et dansant et quasi
Tristes sous leurs déguisements fantasques.
Tout en chantant sur le mode mineur
L'amour vainqueur et la vie opportune
Ils n'ont pas l'air de croire à leur bonheur
Et leur chanson se mêle au clair de lune,
Au calme clair de lune triste et beau,
Qui fait rêver les oiseaux dans les arbres
Et sangloter d'extase les jets d'eau,
Les grands jets d'eau sveltes parmi les marbres.

Your soul is a chosen landscape
Where charming masquerades and dancers are promenading,
Playing the lute and dancing, and almost
Sad beneath their fantastic disguises.
While singing in a minor key
Of victorious love, and the pleasant life
They seem not to believe in their own happiness
And their song blends with the light of the moon,
With the sad and beautiful light of the moon,
Which sets the birds in the trees dreaming,
And makes the fountains sob with ecstasy,
The slender water streams among the marble statues.
