lirik lagu richard mitchley - henry vaughan - friends departed
they are all gone into the world of light!
and i alone sit ling’ring here;
their very memory is fair and bright
and my sad thoughts doth clear
it glows and glitters in my cloudy breast
like stars upon some gloomy grove
or those faint beams in which this hill is drest
after the sun’s remove
i see them walking in an air of glory
whose light doth trample on my days:
my days, which are at best but dull and h~~ry
mere glimmering and decays
o holy hope! and high humility
high as the heavens above!
these are your walks, and you have show’d them me
to kindle my cold love
dear, beauteous death! the jewel of the just
shining nowhere, but in the dark;
what mysteries do lie beyond thy dust
could man outlook that mark!
he that hath found some fledg’d bird’s nest may know
at first sight, if the bird be flown;
but what fair well or grove he sings in now
that is to him unknown
and yet as angels in some brighter dreams
call to the soul, when man doth sleep:
so some strange thoughts transcend our wonted themes
and into glory peep
if a star were confin’d into a tomb
her captive flames must needs burn there;
but when the hand that lock’d her up gives room
she’ll shine through all the sphere
o father of eternal life, and all
created glories under thee!
resume thy spirit from this world of thrall
into true liberty
either disperse these mists, which blot and fill
my perspective still as they pass:
or else remove me hence unto that hill
where i shall need no glass
