imogen holst - o sorrow lyrics

Loading...

o sorrow!
why dost borrow
the natural hue of health, from vermeil lips?++
to give maiden blushes
to the white rose bushes?
or is it thy dewy hand the daisy tips?

o sorrow!
why dost borrow
the l+strous passion from a falcon+eye?++
to give the glow+worm light?
or, on a moonless night
to tinge, on siren shores, the salt sea+spry?

o sorrow!
why dost borrow
the mellow ditties from a mourning tongue?++
to give at evening pale
unto the nightingale
that thou mayst listen the cold dews among?

o sorrow!
why dost borrow
heart’s lightness from the merrimеnt of may?++
a lover would not tread
a cowslip on the hеad
though he should dance from eve till peep of day
