lirik lagu gustav holst - sing me the men

Loading...

sing me the men ere this
who, to the gate that is
a cloven pearl uprapt
the big white bars between
with dying eyes have seen
the sea of jasper, lapt
about with crystal sheen;

and all the far pleasance
where linkèd angels dance
with scarlet wings that fall
magnifical, or spread
most sweetly over~head
in fashion musical
of cadenced lutes instead

sing me the town they saw
withouten fleck or flaw
aflame, more fine than glass
of fair abbayes the boast
more glad than wax of cost
doth make at candlemas
the lifting of the host:

where many knights and dames
with new and wondrous names
one great laudaté psalm
go singing down the street;—
’tis peace upon their feet
in hand ’tis pilgrim palm
of goddes land so sweet:—
where mother mary walks
in silver lily stalks
star~tirèd, moon~bedight;
where cecily is seen
with dorothy in green
and magdalen all white
the maidens of the queen

sing on—the steps untrod
the temple that is god
where incense doth ascend
where mount the cries and tears
of all the dolorous years
with moan that ladies send
of durance and sore fears:—

and him who sitteth there
the christ of purple hair
and great eyes deep with ruth
who is of all things fair
that shall be, or that were
the sum, and very truth
then add a little prayer

that since all these be so
our liege, who doth us know
would fend from sathanas
and bring us, of his grace
to that his joyous place:
so we the doom may pass
and see him in the face
