lirik lagu ghizela rowe - child's talk in april by christina georgina rossetti

Loading...

i wish you were a pleasant wren
and i your small accepted mate;
how we’d look down on toilsome men!
we’d rise and go to bed at eight
or it may be not quite so late

then you should see the nest i’d build
the wondrous nest for you and me;
the outside rough perhaps, but filled
with wool and down; ah, you should see
the cosy nest that it would be

we’d have our change of hope and fear
small quarrels, reconcilements sweet:
i’d perch by you to chirp and cheer
or hop about on active feet
and fetch you dainty bits to eat

we’d be so happy by the day
so safe and happy through the night
we both should feel, and i should say
it’s all one season of delight
and we’ll make merry whilst we may

perhaps some day there’d be an egg
when spring had blossomed from the snow:
i’d stand triumphant on one leg;
like chanticleer i’d almost crow
to let our little neighbours know
next you should sit and i would sing
through lengthening days of sunny spring;
till, if you wearied of the task
i’d sit; and you should spread your wing
from bough to bough; i’d sit and bask

fancy the breaking of the sh~ll
the chirp, the chickens wet and bare
the untried proud paternal swell;
and you with housewife~matron air
enacting choicer bills of fare

fancy the embryo coats of down
the gradual feathers soft and sleek;
till clothed and strong from tail to crown
with virgin warblings in their beak
they too go forth to soar and seek

so would it last an april through
and early summer fresh with dew
then should we part and live as twain:
love~time would bring me back to you
and build our happy nest again
