lirik lagu lorelei king - oliver wendell holmes - prologue
the piping of our slender, peaceful reeds
whispers uncared for while the trumpets bray;
song is thin air; our hearts’ exulting play
beats time but to the tread of marching deeds
following the mighty van that freedom leads
her glorious standard flaming to the day!
the crimsoned pavement where a hero bleeds
breathes n0bler lessons than the poet’s lay
strong arms, broad br~~sts, brave hearts, are better worth
than strains that sing the ravished echoes dumb
hark! ‘t is the loud reverberating drum
rolls o’er the prairied west, the rock~bound north
the myriad~handed future stretches forth
its shadowy palms. behold, we come,~~we come!
turn o’er these idle leaves. such toys as these
were not unsought for, as, in languid dreams
we lay beside our lotus~feeding streams
and nursed our fancies in forgetful ease
it matters little if they pall or please
dropping untimely, while the sudden gleams
glare from the mustering clouds whose blackness seems
too swollen to hold its lightning from the trees
yet, in some lull of passion, when at last
these calm revolving moons that come and go~~
turning our months to years, they creep so slow~~
have brought us rest, the not unwelcome past
may flutter to thee through these leaflets, cast
on the wild winds that all around us blow
