benjamin britten - who are these children? lyrics

Loading...

with easy hands upon the rein
and hounds at their horses’ feet
the ladies and the gentlemen
ride through the village street

brightness of blood upon the coats
and on the women’s lips:
brightness of silver at the throats
and on the hunting whips

is there a dale more calm, more green
under this morning hour;
a scene more alien than this scene
within a world at war?

who are these children gathered here
out of the fire and smoke
that with remembering faces stare
upon the foxing folk?
