《To Althea from Prison(Manor Studio Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] To Althea from Prison (带给监狱里的木槿花) (Manor Studio Version) - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)/David Rea

[00:00:01] Written by：Dave Swarbrick/Richard Lovelace

[00:00:05] When love with unconfined wings

[00:00:10] Hovers within my gates

[00:00:13] And my divine Althea brings to whisper at my grates

[00:00:21] When I lie tangled in her hair

[00:00:25] And fettered with her eye

[00:00:29] The birds that wanton in the air know no such liberty

[00:00:39] When flowing cups run swiftly round

[00:00:43] With no allaying Thames

[00:00:47] Our careless heads with roses crowned

[00:00:51] Our hearts with royal flames

[00:00:55] When first decreeth in wine we steep

[00:00:59] When healths and rafts run free

[00:01:04] Fishes that tipple in the deep know no such liberty

[00:01:12] When it's if like commit finnI

[00:01:15] With shriller throat shall sing

[00:01:20] The mercy sweetness majesty

[00:01:23] And glories of my king

[00:01:28] When I shall joys aloud how good

[00:01:32] He is how great should be

[00:01:37] Enlarged winds that curl the flood

[00:01:40] Know no such liberty

[00:01:47] Stone walls do not a prison make not iron bars a cage

[00:01:55] Minds innocent and quiet take that for a Hermitage

[00:02:03] And if I have freedom in my love

[00:02:07] And in my soul am free

[00:02:12] Angels alone that soar above enjoy such liberty
