SONGS OF MIRZA SCHAFFY, SELECTION, by FRIEDRICH MARTIN VON BODENSTEDT First Line: The rose complained, her fragrance fled Last Line: And there forevermore was living. | |||
The rose complained, her fragrance fled, Ah, far too swiftly it was going-- The lovely scent that spring was giving. And then to comfort her I said, Her fragrance through my songs was flowing, And there forevermore was living. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...RETURN (1) by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON FOR A' THAT AND A' THAT by CHARLES WILLIAM SHIRLEY BROOKS EVENING IN ENGLAND by FRANCIS LEDWIDGE THE SIFTING OF PETER by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW WRESTLING JACOB by CHARLES WESLEY MY PICTURE-GALLERY by WALT WHITMAN ON THOSE THAT HATED 'THE PLAYBOY OF THE WESTERN WORLD' by WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS |
