I love the cradle-songs the mothers sing |
| [00:20.50] |
In lonely places when the twilight drops, |
| [00:27.58] |
The slow, endearing melodies that bring |
| [00:34.38] |
Sleep to the weeping lids; and, when she stops, |
| [00:43.84] |
I love the roadside birds upon the tops |
| [00:50.86] |
Of dusty hedges in a world of Spring. |
| [01:08.28] |
And when the sunny rain drips from the edge |
| [01:13.83] |
Of mid-day wind, and meadows lean one way, |
| [01:22.81] |
And a long whisper passes thro' the sedge, |
| [01:31.52] |
Beside the broken water let me stay, |
| [01:44.59] |
While these old airs upon my memory play, |
| [01:51.93] |
And silent changes colour up the hedge. |
