lirik lagu ghizela rowe - thomas heyrick - on a sunbeam
thou beauteous offspring of a sire as fair;
with thy kind influence thou dost all things heat:
thou gild’st the heaven, the sea, the earth and air
and under massy rocks dost gold beget
th’opaque dull earth thou dost make fine
thou dost i’th’moon and planets shine;
and if astronomy say true
our earth to them doth seem a planet too
how unaccountable thy journeys prove!
thy swift course through the universe doth fly
from lofty heights in distant heavens above
to all that at the lowly center lie
thy parent sun once in a day
through heaven doth steer his wеll~beat way;
thou of a swifter subtler breed
dost еvery moment his day’s course exceed
thy common presence makes thee little priz’d
which if we once had lost, we’d dearly buy:
how would the blind hug, what’s by us despis’d!
how welcome wouldst thou in a dungeon be!
thrice~wretched those, in mines are bred
that from thy sight are buried
when all the stores, for which they try
neither is use, nor beauty, equal thee
could there be found an art to fix thee down
and of condensed rays a gem to make
‘twould be the brightest l~ster of a crown
and an esteem invaluable take
new wars would the tir’d world molest
and new ambition fire men’s breast
more battles fought for it, than e’re
before for love, empire, or treasure were
thou’rt quickly born and dost quickly die:
pity so fair a birth to fate should fall!
now here and now in abject dust dost lie;
one moment ‘twixt thy birth and funeral
art thou, like angels, only shown
then to our grief for ever flown?
tell me, apollo, tell me where
the sunbeams go, when they do disappear
