love-sight - ralph vaughan williams lyrics

Loading...

when do i see thee most, beloved one?
when in the light the spirits of mine eyes
before thy face, their altar, solemnize
the worship of that love thro’ thee made known?
or when, in the dusk hours (we two alone)
close*kissed and eloquent of still replies
thy twilight*hidden glimmering visage lies
and my soul only sees thy soul its own?

o love, my love! if i no more should see
thyself, nor on the earth the shadow of thee
nor image of thine eyes in any spring,—
how then should sound upon life’s darkening slope
the ground*whirl of the perished leaves of hope
the wind of death’s imperishable wing?
