love's voice - ian venables lyrics

Loading...

love, felt from afar, long sought, scarce found
on thee i call;
here where with silvery silent sound
the smooth oars fall;

here where the glimmering water*ways
above yon stair
mirror one trembling lamp that plays
in twilight air!

what sights, what sounds, o poignant love
ere thou wert flown
quivered these darksome waves above
in darkness known!

i dare not dream thereof; the sting
of those dead eyes
is too acute and close a thing
for one who dies

only i feel through glare and gloom
where yon lamp falls
dim spectres hurrying to their doom
and love’s voice calls:

’twas better thus toward death to glide
soul*full of bliss
than with long life unsatisfied
life’s crown to miss
