the grey wolf - harry burleigh lyrics

the grey wolf comes again: i had made fast
the door with chains; how has the grey wolf passed
my threshold? i have nothing left to give:
go from me now, grey wolf, and let me live!
i have fed you once, given all you would, given all
i had to give, i have been prodigal;
i am poor now, the table is but spread
with water and a little wheaten bread;
you have taken all i ever had from me:
go from me now, grey wolf, and let me be!

thе grey wolf, crouching by the bolted door
waits, watching for his food upon thе floor;
i see the old hunger and the old thirst for blood
rise up, under his eyeb*lls like a flood:
what shall i do that the grey wolf may go?
this time, i have no store of meat to throw;
he waits; but i have nothing left, and i stand
helpless, and his eyes fasten on my hand
o grey wolf, grey wolf, will you not depart
unless i feed you with my heart?
