shelley's skylark - north sea radio orchestra lyrics

Loading...

somewhere afield here something lies
in earth’s oblivious eyeless trust
that moved, that moved a poet to prophecies *
a pinch of unseen, unguarded dust

the dust of the lark that sh*lley heard
and made immortal through times to be; *
though it only lived like another bird

and knew not its immortality
lived its meek life; then, one day, fell *
a little ball of feather and bone;
and how it perished, when piped farewell
and where it wastes, are alike unknown

maybe it rests in the loam i view
maybe it throbs in a myrtle’s green
maybe it sleeps in the coming hue
of a grape on the slopes of yon inland scene

go find it, faeries, go and find
that tiny pinch of priceless dust
and bring a casket silver*lined
and framed of gold that gems encrust;

and we will lay it safe therein
and consecrate it to endless time;
for it inspired a bard to win
ecstatic heights in thought and rhyme

and we will lay it safe therein
and consecrate it to endless time;
for it inspired a bard to win
ecstatic heights in thought and rhyme
