agree  DianaIon (X): De ce nu? Originalul e literar, cam emfatic, nu trebuie redat cu fraze standard.

spre dimineață / după miezul nopții


Explanation:
O altă propunere...

De fapt sunt orele de după miezul nopții, de pe la 1:00 până spre ora 4-5.

Propun această varaintă pentru a evita orice confuzie (de ex. și ora 23:00 poate fi considerată oră târzie, dar nu este „wee hour”).
