on a poet's lips i slept - benjamin britten lyrics
Loading...
on a poet’s lips i slept
dreaming like a love*adept
in the sound his breathing kept;
nor seeks nor finds he mortal blisses
but feeds on the aëreal kisses
of shapes that haunt thought’s wildernesses
he will watch from dawn to gloom
the lake*reflected sun illume
the yellow bees in the ivy*bloom
nor heed nor see, what things they be;
but from these create he can
forms more real than living man
nurslings of immortality!
