lirik lagu v. c. clinton-baddeley - walter de la mare: sam
when sam goes back in memory
it is to where the sea
breaks on the shingle, emerald~green
in white foam, endlessly;
he says ~ with small brown eye on mine ~
“i used to keep awake
and lean from my window in the moon
watching those billows break
and half a million tiny hands
and eyes, like sparks of frost
would dance and come tumbling into the moon
on every breaker tossed
and all across from star to star
i’ve seen the watery sea
with not a single ship in sight
just ocean there, and me;
and heard my father snore. and once
as sure as i’m alive
out of those wallowing, moon~flecked waves
i saw a mermaid dive;
head and shoulders above the wave
plain as i now see you
combing her hair, now back, now front
her two eyes peeping through;
calling me, ‘sam!’ ~ quietlike ~ ‘sam!’…
but me … i never went
making believe i kind of thought
’twas some one else she meant….
wonderful lovely there she sat
singing the night away
all in the solitudinous sea
of that there lonely bay.”
“p’raps,” and he’d smooth his hairless mouth
“p’raps, if ’twere now, my son
p’raps, if i heard a voice say, ‘sam!’…
morning would find me gone.”
