fortunate isles - ian venables lyrics

Loading...

there are islands, there are islands
on the ocean’s heaving breast
where the honey*scented silence
broods above the halcyon’s nest;

where the sands are smooth and golden
and the flowers bloom, one by one
unbeloved and unbeholden
save by the all*seeing sun

i shall ne’er with friend or lover
wander on from glade to gladе
through those forests, or discover
silvеry fountains in the shade:

but another’s foot shall linger
mid the bowers whereof i dream
and perchance a careless finger
strew the roses on the stream;

happier men shall pluck the laurel
for the tresses that they love
and the passionate pale coral
wreathe round brows i know not of
