love bade me welcome - ralph vaughan williams lyrics

Loading...

love bade me welcome: yet my soul drew back
guilty of dust and sin
but quick-ey’d love, observing me grow slack
from my first entrance in
drew nearer to me, sweetly questioning
if i lack’d anything

a guest, i answer’d, worthy to be here:
love said, you shall be he
i the unkind, ungrateful? ah, my dear
i cannot look on thee
love took my hand, and smiling did reply
who made the eyes but i?

truth, lord, but i have marr’d them: let my shame
go where it doth deserve
and know you not, says love, who bore the blame?
my dear, then i will serve
you must sit down, says love, and taste my meat:
so i did sit and eat
