Lyrics

Şarkı sözleri

King David was a sorrowful man:
No cause for his sorrow had he;
And he called for the music of a hundred harps
To ease his melancholy
They played till they all fell silent:
Played and play sweet did they;
But the sorrow that haunted the heart of King David
They could not charm away
He rose; and in his garden
Walked by the moon alone
A nightingale hidden in a cypress tree
Jargoned on and on
King David lifted his sad eyes
Into the dark-boughed tree --
"Tell me, thou little bird that singest
Who taught my grief to thee?"
But the bird in no-wise heeded;
And the king in the cool of the moon
Hearkened to the nightingale's sorrowfulness
Till all his own was gone
Written by: Herbert Howells, Walter de La Mare
