lirik lagu richard mitchley - a night in june by alfred austin

Loading...

lady! in this night of june
fair like thee and holy
art thou gazing at the moon
that is rising slowly?
i am gazing on her now:
something tells me, so art thou

night hath been when thou and i
side by side were sitting
watching o’er the moonlit sky
fleecy cloudlets flitting
close our hands were linkèd then;
when will they be linked again?

what to me the starlight still
or the moonbeams’ splendour
if i do not feel the thrill
of thy fingers slender?
summer nights in vain are clear
if thy footstep be not near

roses slumbering in their sheaths
o’er my threshold clamber
and the honeysuckle wreathes
its translucent amber
round the gables of my home:
how is it thou dost not come?
if thou camest, rose on rose
from its sleep would waken;
from each flower and leaf that blows
spices would be shaken;
floating down from star and tree
dreamy perfumes welcome thee

i would lead thee where the leaves
in the moon—rays glisten;
and, where shadows fall in sheaves
we would lean and listen
for the song of that sweet bird
that in april nights is heard

and when weary lids would close
and thy head was drooping
then, like dew that steeps the rose
o’er thy languor stooping
i would, till i woke a sigh
kiss thy sweet lips silently

i would give thee all i own
all thou hast would borrow;
i from thee would keep alone
fear and doubt and sorrow
all of tender that is mine
should most tenderly be thine
moonlight! into other skies
i beseech thee wander
cruel, thus to mock mine eyes
idle, thus to squander
love’s own light on this dark spot;—
for my lady cometh not!
