lirik lagu sir john gielgud - the passionate pilgrim, no. 20
as it fell upon a day
in the merry month of may
sitting in a pleasant shade
which a grove of myrtles made
beastes did leap, and birds did sing
trees did grow, and plants did spring:
every thing did banish mone
save the nightingale alone
shee (poor bird) as all forlorne
leand her breast up~till a th~rne
and there sung the dolefulst ditty
that to heare it was great pitty
fie, fie, fie, now would she cry
teru, teru, by and by:
that to hear her so complaine
scarce i could from teares refrainе
for her griefes so livеly showne
made me thinke upon mine owne
ah (thought i) thou mournst in vaine
none takes pitty on thy paine:
senselesse trees, they cannot heare thee
ruthlesse bears, they will not cheer thee
king pandion, he is dead
all thy friends are lapt in lead
all thy fellow birds doe sing
carelesse of thy sorrowing
whilst as fickle fortune smild
thou and i, were both beguild
every one that flatters thee
is no friend in misery
words are easie, like the wind
faithful friends are hard to find;
every man will be thy friend
whilst thou hast wherewith to spend:
but if store of crowns be scant
no man will supply thy want
if that one be prodigal
bountiful they will him call:
and with such~like flattering
pity but he were a king
if he be addict to vice
quickly him they will intice
if to women he be bent
they have at commaundement
but if fortune once do frown
then farewel his great renowne
they that fawn’d on him before
use his company no more
he that is thy friend indeed
he will helpe thee in thy need
if thou sorrow, he will weep;
if thou wake, he cannot sleep
thus of every grief in heart
he with thee doeth beare a part
these are certain signs to know
faithful friend from flatt’ring foe
