benjamin britten - nightmare lyrics
Loading...
the tree stood flowering in a dream:
beside the tree a dark shape bowed:
as lightning glittered the axe+gleam
across the wound in the broken wood
the tree cried out with human cries:
from its deepening hurt the blood ran:
the branches flowered with children’s eyes
and the dark murderer was a man
there came a fear which sighed aloud;
and with its fear the dream+world woke:
yet in the day the tree still stood
bleeding beneath the axe+man’s stroke
