lirik lagu eve karpf - emily bronte - plead for me
o thy bright eyes must answer now
when reason, with a scornful brow
is mocking at my overthrow;
o thy sweet tongue must plead for me
and tell why i have chosen thee!
stern reason is to judgment come
arrayed in all her forms of gloom:
wilt thou my advocate be dumb?
no, radiant angel, speak and say
why i did cast the world away;
why i have persevered to shun
the common paths that others run;
and on a strange road journeyed on
heedless alike of wealth and power—
of glory’s wreath and pleasure’s flower
thesе once indeed seemed beings divinе
and they perchance heard vows of mine
and saw my offerings on their shrine—
but, careless gifts are seldom prized
and mine were worthily despised;
so with a ready heart i swore
to seek their altar~stone no more
and gave my spirit to adore
thee, ever present, phantom thing—
my slave, my comrade, and my king!
a slave because i rule thee still;
incline thee to my changeful will
and make thy influence good or ill—
a comrade, for by day and night
thou art my intimate delight—
my darling pain that wounds and sears
and wrings a blessing out from tears
by deadening me to real cares;
and yet, a king—though prudence well
have taught thy subject to rebel
and am i wrong to worship where
faith cannot doubt nor hope despair
since my own soul can grant my prayer?
speak, god of visions, plead for me
and tell why i have chosen thee!
