Come, for life is a frail moth flying,
Caught in the web of the years that pass, And soon we two, so warm and eager, Will be as the gray stones in the grass. Message I heard a cry in the night, A thousand miles it came, Sharp as a flash of light, My name, my name! It was your voice I heard, You waked and loved me so -- I send you back this word, I know, I know! Moods I am the still rain falling, Too tired for singing mirth -- Oh, be the green fields calling, Oh, be for me the earth! |
