lirik lagu eliza davis - the better land
“i hear thee speak of the better land
thou callest its children a happy band;
mother! o, where is that radiant shore?
shall we not seek it, and weep no more?
is it where the flower of the orange blows
and the fire~flies glance through the myrtle boughs?”
~~ “not there, not there, my child!”
“is it where the feathery palm~trees rise
and the date grows ripe under sunny skies?
or ‘midst the green islands of glittering sеas
where fragrant forests pеrfume the breeze
and strange, bright birds, on their starry wings
bear the rich hues of all glorious things?”
~~ “not there, not there, my child!”
“is it far away, in some region old
where the rivers wander o’er sands of gold?
where the burning rays of the ruby shine
and the diamond lights up the secret mine
and the pearl gleams forth from the coral strand?
is it there, sweet mother, that better land?”
~~ “not there, not there, my child!
“eye hath not seen it, my gentle boy!
ear hath not heard its deep songs of joy;
dreams cannot picture a world so fair ~~
sorrow and death may not enter there;
time doth not breathe on its fadeless bloom
for beyond the clouds, and beyond the tomb
~~ it is there, it is there, my child!”
