siobhan mckenna - the lady songs lyrics
i turn round
like a dumb beast in a show
neither know what i am
nor where i go
my language beaten
into one name;
i am in love
and that is my shame
what hurts the soul
my soul adores
no better than a beast
upon all fours
what sort of man is coming
to lie between your feet?
what matter, we are but women
wash; make your body sweet;
i have cupboards of dried fragrance
i can strew the sheet
i{the lord have mercy upon us.}
he shall love my soul as though
body were not at all
he shall love your body
untroubled by the soul
love cram lovе’s two divisions
yet keep his substance whole
i{thе lord have mercy upon us.}
soul must learn a love that is
proper to my breast
limbs a love in common
with every n0ble beast
if soul may look and body touch
which is the more blest?
i{the lord have mercy upon us.}
when you and my true lover meet
and he plays tunes between your feet
speak no evil of the soul
nor think that body is the whole
for i that am his daylight lady
know worse evil of the body;
but in honour split his love
till either neither have enough
that i may hear if we should kiss
a contrapuntal serpent hiss
you, should hand explore a thigh
all the labouring heavens sigh
