lirik lagu richard mitchley - the welsh march by a e houseman
high the vanes of shrewsbury gleam
islanded in severn stream;
the bridges from the steepled crest
cross the water east and west
the flag of morn in conqueror’s state
enters at the english gate:
the vanquished eve, as night prevails
bleeds upon the road to wales
ages since the vanquished bled
round my mother’s marriage~bed;
there the ravens feasted far
about the open house of war:
when severn down to buildwas ran
coloured with the death of man
couched upon her brother’s grave
that saxon got me on the slave
the sound of fight is silent long
that began the ancient wrong;
long the voice of tears is still
that wept of old the endless ill
in my heart it has not died
the war that sleeps on severn side;
they cease not fighting, east and west
on the marches of my breat
here the truceless armies yet
trample, rolled in blood and sweat;
they k!ll and k!ll and never die;
and i think that each is i
none will part us, none undo
the knot that makes one flesh of two
sick with hatred, sick with pain
strangling— when shall we be slain?
when shall i be dead and rid
of the wrong my father did?
how long, how long, till spade and he~rs~
puts to sleep my mother’s curse?
