if thou long'st so much to learn - thomas campion lyrics

Loading...

if thou long’st so much to learn, sweet boy, what ’tis to love
do but fix thy thought on me, and thou shalt quickly prove
little suit at first shall win
way to thy abashed desire;
but then will i hedge thee in
salamander*like, with fire

with thee dance i will and sing, and thy fond dalliance bear;
we the grovy hills will climb and play the wanton there
otherwhiles we’ll gather flowers
lying dallying on the grass
and thus our delightful hours
full of waking dreams shall pass

when thy joys were thus at height my love should turn from thee;
old acquaintance then should grow as strange as strange might be;
twenty rivals thou should’st find
breaking all thеir hearts for me;
when to all i’ll provе more kind
and more forward than to thee

thus thy silly youth enraged would soon my love defy
but alas, poor soul, too late; clipped wings can never fly
those sweet hours which we had passed
called to mind thy heart would burn;
and could’st thou fly ne’er so fast
they would make thee straight return
