mark rivers - the darkling thrush كلمات أغنية

i leant upon a coppice gate
when frost was spectre_grey
and winter’s dregs made desolate
the weakening eye of day
the tangled bine_stems scored the sky
like strings of broken lyres
and all mankind that haunted nigh
had sought their household fires

the land’s sharp features seemed to be
the century’s corpse outleant
his crypt the cloudy canopy
the wind his death_lament
the ancient pulse of germ and birth
was shrunken hard and dry
and every spirit upon earth
seemed fervourless as i

at once a voice arose among
the bleak twigs overhead
in a full_hearted evensong
of joy illimited;
an aged thrush, frail, gaunt, and small
in blast_beruffled plume
had chosen thus to fling his soul
upon the growing gloom
so little cause for carolings
of such ecstatic sound
was written on terrestrial things
afar or nigh around
that i could think there trembled through
his happy good_night air
some blessed hope, whereof he knew
and i was unaware

- mark rivers
