louis untermeyer - the wise woman كلمات أغنية

his eyes grow hot, his words grow wild;
he swears to break the mold and leave her
she smiles at him as at a child
that’s touched with fever

she smooths his ruffled wings, she leans
to comfort, pamper and restore him
and when he sulks or scowls she preens
his feathers for him

he hungers after stale regrets
nourished by what she offers gaily;
and all he thinks he never gets
she feeds him daily

he l_sts for freedom, cries how long
must he be bound by what controlled him;
yet he is glad the chains are strong
and that they hold him

she knows he feels all this but she
is far too wise to let him know it;
he likes to nurse the agony
that fits a poet

he grins to see her shape his life
when she half_coaxes, half_commands him
and groans it’s hard to have a wife
who understands him
