Paroles

Dark is the night,
The fire burns faint and low,
Hours—days—years,
Into grey ashes go;
I strive to read,
But sombre is the glow.
Thumbed are the pages,
And the print is small;
Mocking the winds
That from the darkness call;
Feeble the fire that lends
Its light withal.
O ghost, draw nearer;
Let thy shadowy hair
Blot out the pages
That we cannot share;
Be ours the one last leaf
By Fate left bare!
Let’s Finis scrawl,
And then Life’s book put by;
Turn each to each
In all simplicity:
Ere the last flame is gone
To warm us by.
Walter de la Mare (1873-1956)
Written by: Benjamin Britten, Walter de La Mare
