lennox berkeley - the mighty thoughts of an old world lyrics

Loading...

the mighty thoughts of an old world
fan, like a dragon’s wing unfurled
the surface of my yearnings deep;
and solemn shadows then awake
like a fish+lizard in the lake
troubling a planet’s morning sleep

my waking is a titan’s dream
where a strange sun, long set, doth beam
through montezuma’s cypress bough:
through the fern wilderness forlorn
glisten the giant harts’ great h+rn
and serpents vast with helmed brow

the measureless from caverns rise
with steps of earthquake, thunderous criеs
and graze upon the lofty wood;
the palmy grovе, through which doth gleam
such antediluvian ocean’s stream
haunts shadowy my domestic mood
