terence stamp - endymion by henry wadsworth longfellow lyrics
the rising moon has hid the stars;
her level rays, like golden bars
lie on the landscape green
with shadows brown between
and silver white the river gleams
as if diana, in her dreams
had dropt her silver bow
upon the meadows low
on such a tranquil night as this
she woke endymion with a kiss
when, sleeping in the grove
he dreamed not of her love
like dian’s kiss, unasked, unsought
love gives itself, but is not bought;
her voice, nor sound betrays
its deep, impassioned gaze
it comеs,—the beautiful, the free
thе crown of all humanity,—
in silence and alone
to seek the elected one
it lifts the boughs, whose shadows deep
are life’s oblivion, the soul’s sleep
and kisses the closed eyes
of him, who slumbering lies
o, weary hearts! o, slumbering eyes!
o, drooping souls, whose destinies
are fraught with fear and pain
ye shall be loved again!
no one is so accursed by fate
no one so utterly desolate
but some heart, though unknown
responds unto his own
responds,—as if with unseen wings
a breath from heaven had touched its strings
and whispers, in its song
“where hast thou stayed so long!”
