emma topping - an apple gathering كلمات أغنية

i plucked pink blossoms from mine apple_tree
and wore them all that evening in my hair:
then in due season when i went to see
i found no apples there

with dangling basket all along the grass
as i had come i went the selfsame track:
my neighbours mocked me while they saw me pass
so empty_handed back

lilian and lilias smiled in trudging by
their heaped_up basket teased me like a jeer;
sweet_voiced they sang beneath the sunset sky
their mother’s home was near

plump gertrude passed me with her basket full
a stronger hand than hers helped it along;
a voice talked with her through the shadows cool
more sweet to me than song

ah willie, willie, was my love less worth
than apples with their green leaves piled above?
i counted rosiest apples on the earth
of far less worth than love

so once it was with me you stooped to talk
laughing and listening in this very lane:
to think that by this way we used to walk
we shall not walk again!
i let me neighbours pass me, ones and twos
and groups; the latest said the night grew chill
and hastened: but i loitered, while the dews
fell fast i loitered still

- emma topping
