SONG by FRANCIS LEDWIDGE

First Line: NOTHING BUT SWEET MUSIC WAKES
Last Line: MY OWN BELOVED!
Subject(s): DAISIES; FLOWERS; RAIN; SMELLS; WIND; ODORS; AROMAS; FRAGRANCES;

NOTHING but sweet music wakes
My Beloved, my Beloved.
Sleeping by the blue lakes,
My own Beloved!

Song of lark and song of thrush,
My Beloved! my Beloved!
Sing in morning's rosy bush,
My own Beloved!

When your eyes dawn blue and clear,
My Beloved! my Beloved!
You will find me waiting here,
My own Beloved!
