youth's spring tribute - john ireland lyrics

Loading...

on this sweet bank your head thrice sweet and dear
i lay, and spread your hair on either side
and see the newborn woodflowers bashful*eyed
look through the golden tresses here and there
on these debateable borders of the year
spring’s foot half falters; scarce she yet may know
the leafless blackth*rn*blossom from the snow
and through her bowers the wind’ s way still is clear

but april’s sun strikes down the glades to*day;
so shut your eyes upturned and feel my kiss
creep, as the spring now thrills through every spray
up your warm throat to your warm lips: for this
is even the hour of love’s sworn suitservice
with whom cold hearts are counted castaway
