gerald finzi - overlooking the river lyrics

Loading...

the swallows flew in the curves of an eight
above the river+gleam
in the wet june’s last beam:
like little crossbows animate
the swallows flew in the curve of an eight
above the river+gleam

planing up shavings of crystal spray
a moor+hen darted out
from the bank thereabout
and through the stream+shine ripped his way;
planing up shavings of crystal spray
a moor+hen darted out

closed were the kingcups; and the mead
dripped in monotonous green
though the day’s morning sheen
had shown it golden and honeybee’d;
closed were the kingcups; and the mead
dripped in monotonous green

and never i turned my head, alack
while these things met my gaze
through the pane’s drop+drenched glaze
to see the more behind my back…
o never i turned, but let, alack
these less things hold my gaze!
