young love lies sleeping - arthur somervell lyrics

Loading...

young love lies sleeping
in may*time of the year
among the lilies
lapped in tender light:
white lambs come grazing
white doves come building there;
and round about him
the may*bushes are white

young love lies dreaming;
but who can tell the dream?
a perfect sunlight
on rustling forest tips;
or perfect moonlight
upon a rippling stream;
or perfect silence
or songs of cherished lips

draw close the curtains
of branched evergreen;
change cannot touch them
with fading fingers sere:
here the first violets
perhaps will bud unseen
and a dove, may be
return to nestle here
young love lies sleeping
and round about him
the may bushes are white
