[00:06.14] When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom’d
[00:09.43] And the great star early droop’d in the western sky in the night
[00:13.33] I mourn’d, and yet shall mourn with ever-returning spring
[00:19.51] Ever-returning spring, trinity sure to me you bring
[00:27.14] Lilac blooming perennial and drooping star in the west
[00:31.10] And thought of him I love
[00:38.19] In the dooryard fronting an old farm-house near the white-wash’d palings
[00:43.15] Stands the lilac-bush tall-growing with heart-shaped leaves of rich green
[00:49.63] With many a pointed blossom rising delicate, with the perfume strong I love
[00:55.47] With every leaf a miracle—and from this bush in the dooryard
[01:00.67] With delicate-color’d blossoms and heart-shaped leaves of rich green
[01:06.33] A sprig with its flower I break
[01:11.91] Over the breast of the spring, the land, amid cities
[01:17.79] Amid lanes and through old woods, where lately the violets peep’d from the ground, spotting the gray
[01:27.11] Amid the grass in the fields each side of the lanes, passing the endless grass
[01:31.65] Passing the yellow-spear’d wheat, every grain from its shroud in the dark-brown fields uprisen
[01:41.06] Passing the apple-tree blows of white and pink in the orchards
[01:46.92] Carrying a corpse to where it shall rest in the grave
[01:50.99] Night and day journeys a coffin
[01:54.08] Coffin that passes through lanes and streets
[01:57.50] Through day and night with the great cloud darkening the land
[02:02.75] With the pomp of the inloop’d flags with the cities draped in black
[02:07.98] With the show of the States themselves as of crape-veil’d women standing
[02:14.26] With processions long and winding and the flambeaus of the night
[02:19.81] With the countless torches lit, with the silent sea of faces and the unbared heads
[02:25.45] With the waiting depot, the arriving coffin, and the sombre faces
[02:31.55] With dirges through the night, with the thousand voices rising strong and solemn
[02:38.31] With all the mournful voices of the dirges pour’d around the coffin
[02:43.60] The dim-lit churches and the shuddering organs—where amid these you journey
[02:54.79] With the tolling tolling bells’ perpetual clang
[02:55.82] Here, coffin that slowly passes
[03:01.79] I give you my sprig of lilac
[00:06.14] When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom' d
[00:09.43] And the great star early droop' d in the western sky in the night
[00:13.33] I mourn' d, and yet shall mourn with everreturning spring
[00:19.51] Everreturning spring, trinity sure to me you bring
[00:27.14] Lilac blooming perennial and drooping star in the west
[00:31.10] And thought of him I love
[00:38.19] In the dooryard fronting an old farmhouse near the whitewash' d palings
[00:43.15] Stands the lilacbush tallgrowing with heartshaped leaves of rich green
[00:49.63] With many a pointed blossom rising delicate, with the perfume strong I love
[00:55.47] With every leaf a miracle and from this bush in the dooryard
[01:00.67] With delicatecolor' d blossoms and heartshaped leaves of rich green
[01:06.33] A sprig with its flower I break
[01:11.91] Over the breast of the spring, the land, amid cities
[01:17.79] Amid lanes and through old woods, where lately the violets peep' d from the ground, spotting the gray
[01:27.11] Amid the grass in the fields each side of the lanes, passing the endless grass
[01:31.65] Passing the yellowspear' d wheat, every grain from its shroud in the darkbrown fields uprisen
[01:41.06] Passing the appletree blows of white and pink in the orchards
[01:46.92] Carrying a corpse to where it shall rest in the grave
[01:50.99] Night and day journeys a coffin
[01:54.08] Coffin that passes through lanes and streets
[01:57.50] Through day and night with the great cloud darkening the land
[02:02.75] With the pomp of the inloop' d flags with the cities draped in black
