Answer:

The answer is villanelle.

Explanation:

A villanelle is a nineteen-line poem, constituted of five tercets and a quatrain. The rhyming scheme for those lines is: aba, aba, aba, aba, aba, abaa. Some lines are repeated throughout the poem. The repeated lines are called refrains. Thus, the description given in the question is that of a villanelle. Let's check those characteristics in Dylan Thomas's poem "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night":

(First tercet)

Do not go gentle into that good night,  A

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;  B

Rage, rage against the dying of the light. A

(Second tercet)

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,  A

Because their words had forked no lightning they  B

Do not go gentle into that good night.  A

(Third tercet)

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright  A

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,  A

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.  A

(Fourth tercet)

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,  A

And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,  B

Do not go gentle into that good night.  A

(Fifth tercet)

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight  A

Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,  B

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.  A

(Quatrain)

And you, my father, there on the sad height,  A

Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.  B

Do not go gentle into that good night.  A

Rage, rage against the dying of the light. A

Rhyming scheme: night and the words that rhyme with it - A; day and the words that rhyme with it - B.

Refrains: "Do not go gentle into that good night" and "Rage, rage against the dying of the light".
