lirik lagu ghizela rowe - helen hunt jackson - the fir tree and the brook
the fir~tree looked on stars, but loved the brook!
“o silver~voiced! if thou wouldst wait
my love can bravely woo.” all smiles forsook
the brook’s white face. “too late!
too late! i go to wed the sea
i know not if my love would curse or bless thee
i may not, dare not, tarry to caress thee
oh, do not follow me!
the fir~tree moaned and moaned till spring;
then laughed in manic joy to feel
early one day, the woodsmen of the king
sign him with a sign of burning steel
the first to fall. “now flee
thy swiftest, brook! thy love may curse or bless me
i care not, if but once thou dost caress me
o brook, i follow thee!
all torn and bruisеd with mark of adze and chain
hurled down the dizzy slidе of sand
tossed by great waves in ecstasy of pain
and rudely thrown at last to land
the fir~tree heard: “oh, see
with what fierce love it is i must caress thee!
i warned thee i might curse, and never bless thee
why didst thou follow me?
all stately set with spar and brace and rope
the fir~tree stood and sailed and sailed
in wildest storm when all the ship lost hope
the fir~tree never shook nor quailed
nor ceased from saying, “free
art thou, o brook! but once thou hast caressed me;
for life, for death, thy love has cursed or blessed me;
behold, i follow thee!”
lost in a night, and no man left to tell
crushed in the giant iceberg’s play
the ship went down without a song, a knell
still drifts the fir~tree night and day
still moans along the sea
a voice: “o fir~tree! thus must i possess thee;
eternally, brave love, will i caress thee
dead for the love of me!”
