jo wyatt - anne bronte - the arbour lyrics

Loading...

i’ll rest me in this sheltered bower
and look upon the clear blue sky
that smiles upon me through the trees
which stand so thickly cl+stering by;
and view their green and glossy leaves
all glistening in the sunshine fair;
and list the rustling of their boughs
so softly whispering through the air

and while my ear drinks in the sound
my winged soul shall fly away;
reviewing long departed years
as one mild, beaming, autumn day;

and soaring on to future scenes
like hills and woods, and valleys green
all basking in the summer’s sun
but distant still, and dimly seen

oh, list! ’tis summer’s very breath
that gently shakes the rustling trees +
but look! the snow is on the ground +
how can i think of scenes like these?

’tis but the frost that clears the air
and gives the sky that lovely blue;
they’re smiling in a winter’s sun
those evergreens of sombre hue
and winter’s chill is on my heart +
how can i dream of future bliss?
how can my spirit soar away
confined by such a chain as this?
