lirik lagu edward elgar - the swimmer

Loading...

with short, sharp violent lights made vivid
to southward far as the sight can roam ;
only the swirl of the surges livid
the seas that climb and the surfs that comb
only the crag and the cliff to nor’ward
the rocks receding, and reefs flung forward
waifs wreck’d seaward and wasted shoreward
on shallows sheeted with flaming foam

a grim, gray coast and a seaboard ghastly
and shores trod seldom by feet of men ~~
where the batter’d hull and the broken mast lie
they have lain embedded these long years ten
love! when we wandered here together
hand in hand through the sparkling weather
from the heights and hollows of fern and heather
god surely loved us a little then

the skies were fairer, the shores were firmer ~~
the blue sea over the bright sand roll’d;
babble and prattle, and ripple and murmur
sheen of silver and glamour of gold

so girt with tempest and wing’d with thunder
and clad with lightning and shod with sleet
and strong winds treading the swift waves under
the flying rollers with frothy feet
one gleam like a bloodshot sword~blade swims on
the sky~line, staining the green gulf crimson
a death stroke fiercely dealt by a dim sun
that strikes through his stormy winding~sheet
o, brave white horses! you gather and gallop
the storm sprite loosens the gusty reins;
now the stoutest ship were the frailest shallop
in your hollow backs, on your high arch’d manes
i would ride as never man has ridden
in your sleepy, swirling surges hidden
to gulfs foreshadow’d thro’ strifes forbidden
where no light wearies and no love wanes
