richard mitchley - alfred austin - in sutton woods كلمات أغنية
there_peace once more; the restless roar
of troubled cities dies away
“welcome to our broad shade once more,”
the dear old woodlands seem to say
the sweet suggestions of the wind
that spake in whispers, now are stilled;
the songless branches all remind
that summer’s glory is fulfilled
the petulant plaint of falling leaves
dimples the leaden pool awhile;
so age, impassive, but receives
youth’s tale of troubles with a smile
o fallen leaves! o feelings dead!
o dimpled pool! o scornful lips!
o hardening of the heart and head!_
the summer’s and the soul’s eclipse!
thus, as the seasons slip away
how much is schemed, how little done!
what splendid plans at break of day!
what void regrets at set of sun!
the world goes round, for you, for me
for him who sits, for him who strives
and the great fates indifferent see
the rage or respite of our lives
then fall, ye leaves! die out, thou breeze!
grow sedges thick on every pool!
let each old rushing impulse freeze
let each old generous friendship cool
it is not love, it is not worth
self_sacrifice, or yearnings true
make the dull devotees of earth
prostrate themselves and worship you
the savage consciousness of powers
the selfish purpose, stubborn will
have ever, in this world of ours
achieved success_achieve it still
farewell, ye woods! no more i sit;
great voices in the distance call:
if this be peace_enough of it
i go. fall, unseen foliage, fall!
