emily bronte - how clear she shines - eve karpf lyrics
how clear she shines! how quietly
i lie beneath her guardian light;
while heaven and earth are whispering me
“to morrow, wake, but dream to*night.”
yes, fancy, come, my fairy love!
these throbbing temples softly kiss;
and bend my lonely couch above
and bring me rest, and bring me bliss
the world is going; dark world, adieu!
grim world, conceal thee till the day;
the heart thou canst not all subdue
must still resist, if thou delay!
thy love i will not, will not share;
thy hatred only wakes a smile;
thy griefs may wound—thy wrongs may tear
but, oh, thy lies shall ne’er beguile!
while gazing on the stars that glow
above me, in that stormless sea
i long to hope that all the woe
creation knows, is held in thee!
and this shall be my dream to*night;
i’ll think the heaven of glorious spheres
is rolling on its course of light
in endless bliss, through endless years;
i’ll think, there’s not one world above
far as these straining eyes can see
where wisdom ever laughed at love
or virtue crouched to infamy;
where, writhing ‘neath the strokes of fate
the mangled wretch was forced to smile;
to match his patience ‘gainst her hate
his heart rebellious all the while
where pleasure still will lead to wrong
and helpless reason warn in vain;
and truth is weak, and treachery strong;
and joy the surest path to pain;
and peace, the lethargy of grief;
and hope, a phantom of the soul;
and life, a labour, void and brief;
and death, the despot of the whole!
