allen ginsberg - introduction [to songs of innocence] lyrics

Loading...

piping down the valleys wild
piping songs of pleasant glee
on a cloud i saw a child
and he laughing said to me:

‘pipe a song about a lamb!’
so i piped with merry cheer
‘piper, pipe that song again.’
so i piped: he wept to hear

‘drop thy pipe, thy happy pipe;
sing thy songs of happy cheer!’
so i sung the same again
while he wept with joy to hear

p. 2‘piper, sit thee down and write
in a book, that all may read.’
so he vanished from my sight;
and i plucked a hollow reed

and i made a rural pen
and i stained the water clear
and i wrote my happy songs
every child may joy to hear
