《The Promise Of The Hawthorn》歌词

[00:00:00] The Promise Of The Hawthorn - Richard Mitchley

[00:00:00] The Promise Of The Hawthorn by Algernon Charles Swinburne

[00:00:05] Spring sleeps and stirs and trembles with desire

[00:00:09] Pure a babe's that nestles toward the breast

[00:00:13] The world as yet an all unstricken lyre

[00:00:15] With all it's chords alive and all at rest

[00:00:18] Feels not the sun's hand yet but feels his breath

[00:00:22] And yearns for love made perfect Man and bird

[00:00:26] Thrilled through with hope of life that casts out death

[00:00:30] Wait with a rapturous patience till his word

[00:00:32] Speak heaven and flower by flower and tree by tree

[00:00:37] Give back the silent strenuous utterance Earth

[00:00:40] Alive awhile and joyful as the sea

[00:00:43] Laughs not aloud in joy too deep for mirth

[00:00:47] Presageful of perfection of delight

[00:00:49] Till all the unborn green buds be born in white
