lyrics

THE ZUCCA

Bm Summer was dead and Autumn was expiring, G
Bm And infant Winter laughed upon the land G
E All cloudlessly and cold ;-when I, desiring
C More in this world than any understand,
E Wept o’er the beauty, which, like sea retiring,
C Had left the earth bare as the wave-worn sand E Gt
C Of my heart, and o’er the grass and flowers
A Pale for the falsehood of flattering Hours. C A_G

Bm Summer was dead, but I yet lived to weep G
Bm The instability of all but weeping ; G
E As human heart to human heart may be ;-
G I loved. I know not what-but this low sphere
E And all that it contains, contains not thee,
G Thou, whom, seen nowhere, I feel everywhere.
E From Heaven and Earth, and all that in them are,
G Veiled art thou, like a star. Bm G X 2, Db D X 2


Db By Heaven and Earth, from all whose shapes thou flowest,
D Neither to be contained, delayed, nor hidden ;
Db Making divine the loftiest and the lowest,
D When for a moment thou art not forbidden
Bm G X2 Db D X 2
Db To live within the life which thou bestowest ;
D And leaving noblest things vacant and chidden,
Db Cold as a corpse after the spirit’s flight,
D Blank as the sun after the birth of night.

In winds, and trees, and streams, and all things common,
Bm In music and the sweet unconscious tone G
E Of animals, and voices which are human,
G Meant to express some feelings of their own ;
E In the soft motions and rare smile of woman,
G In flowers and in leaves, and in the grass fresh-shown,
E Or dying in the autumn, I the most
C Adore thee present or lament thee lost.
E
