edward macdowell - constancy lyrics

Loading...

old lilac bushes thin and grey
in wistful longing sigh
dishevelled roses blush in vain;
no mistress lingers by
the tansy creeps e’en to the door
through garden tangles sweet
gaunt apple trees their wizened fruit
strew at the master’s feet;
and lo! a cricket bravely chirps
throughout the lonely house
but those who lov’d there long ago;
they sleep too deep to ‘rouse
yet keep, o keep your trust to heart
’twill never last now long:
for house and ye shall pass away
yea! even as my song, my song
