richard mitchley - my little march girl by paul laurence dunbar lyrics

Loading...

come to the pane, draw the curtain apart
there she is passing, the girl of my heart;
see where she walks like a queen in the street
weather+defying, calm, placid and sweet
tripping along with impetuous grace
joy of her life beaming out of her face
tresses all truant+like, curl upon curl
wind+blown and rosy, my little march girl

hint of the violet’s delicate bloom
hint of the rose’s pervading perfume!
how can the wind help from kissing her face,—
wrapping her round in his stormy еmbrace?
but still serenеly she laughs at his rout
she is the victor who wins in the bout
so may life’s passions about her soul swirl
leaving it placid,—my little march girl

what self+possession looks out of her eyes!
what are the wild winds, and what are the skies
frowning and glooming when, brimming with life
cometh the little maid ripe for the strife?
ah! wind, and bah! wind, what might have you now?
what can you do with that innocent brow?
blow, wind, and grow, wind, and eddy and swirl
but bring to me, wind,— my little march girl
