ditty - gerald finzi lyrics

Loading...

beneath a knap where flown
nestlings play
within walls of weathered stone
far away
from the files of formal houses
by the bough the firstling browses
lives a sweet: no merchants meet
no man barters, no man sells
where she dwells

upon that fabric fair
“here is she!”
seems written everywhere
unto me
but to friends and nodding neighbours
fellow wights in lot and labours
who descry the times as i
no such lucid legend tells
wherе she dwells

should i lapse to what i was
erе we met;
(such will not be, but because
some forget
let me feign it) * none would notice
that where she i know by rote is
spread a strange and withering change
like a drying of the wells
where she dwells
to feel i might have kissed *
loved as true *
otherwhere, nor mine have missed
my life through
had i never wandered near her
is a smart severe * severer
in the thought that she is nought
even as i, beyond the dells
where she dwells

and devotion droops her glance
to recall
what bond*servants of chance
we are all
i but found her in that, going
on my errant path unknowing
i did not out*skirt the spot
that no spot on earth excels *
where she dwells!
