roger quilter - i wish and i wish lyrics

Loading...

i wish and i wish
and i wish i were
a golden bee
in the blue of the air
winging my way
at the mouth of day
to the honey+marges
of loch+ciuin+ban;
or a little green drake
or a silver swan
floating upon
the stream of aili
and i to be swimming
gaily, gaily!

i wish and i wish
and i wish i could be
a bud on a branch
of the red+th+rn tree
that blows at the head
of blanaid’s bed
and sheds a petal
at every breath;
or a white milestone
on the shining path
that climbs the cairn
and dips the hollow
up to the hills
of bright maghmeala
if wishes were fairies
i would not stay
but they would wile
my soul away;
and peacе would creep
into my sleep
as soft as a dream
at evenfall
whеn the crickets sing
and the curlews call;
and ’tis i would wake
for no new morrow
on the grey round
of this world of sorrow!
