lirik lagu ghizela rowe - emily pauline johnson - the song my paddle sings

Loading...

west wind, blow from your prairie nest
blow from the mountains, blow from the west
the sail is idle, the sailor too;
o! wind of the west, we wait for you
blow, blow!
i have wooed you so
but never a favour you bestow
you rock your cradle the hills between
but scorn to notice my white lateen

i stow the sail, unship the mast:
i wooed you long but my wooing’s past;
my paddle will lull you into rest
o! drowsy wind of the drowsy west
sleep, sleep
by your mountain steep
or down where the prairie grasses sweep!
now fold in slumber your laggard wings
for soft is the song my paddle sings

august is laughing across the sky
laughing while paddle, canoe and i
drift, drift
wherе the hills uplift
on either sidе of the current swift
the river rolls in its rocky bed;
my paddle is plying its way ahead;
dip, dip
while the waters flip
in foam as over their breast we slip

and oh, the river runs swifter now;
the eddies circle about my bow
swirl, swirl!
how the ripples curl
in many a dangerous pool awhirl!

and forward far the rapids roar
fretting their margin for evermore
dash, dash
with a mighty crash
they seethe, and boil, and bound, and splash

be strong, o paddle! be brave, canoe!
the reckless waves you must plunge into
reel, reel
on your trembling keel
but never a fear my craft will feel

we’ve raced the rapid, we’re far ahead!
the river slips through its silent bed
sway, sway
as the bubbles spray
and fall in tinkling tunes away
and up on the hills against the sky
a fir tree rocking its lullaby
swings, swings
its emerald wings
swelling the song that my paddle sings
