lirik lagu robert penn warren - the garden

Loading...

how kind, how secret, now the sun
will bless this garden frost has won
and touch once more, as once it used
the furled boughs by cold bemused
though summered brilliance had but room
in blossom, now the leaves will bloom
their time, and take from milder sun
an unreviving benison

no marbles whitely gaze among
these paths where gilt the late pear hung:
but branches interlace to frame
the avenue of stately flame
where yonder, far more bold and pure
than marble, gleams the sycamore
of argent tone and cunning shaft
propped n0bler than the sculptor’s craft

the hand that crooked upon the spade
here plucked the peach, and thirst allayed;
here lovers paused before the kiss
instructed of what ripeness is:
where all who came might stand to try
the grace of this green empery
now jay and cardinal debate
like twin usurpers, the ruined state
but he who sought, not love, but peace
in such rank plot could take no ease:
now poised between the two alarms
of summer’s l~sts and winter’s harms
only for him these precincts wait
in sacrament that can translate
all things that fed luxurious sense
