| Fragrance, East Wind, from the pathway Which the fair doth wend, bring thou |
|
|
| All compact of grace and beauty Is my loved one's moonlike face |
|
|
| From the doorway of the winehouse Solace for our pain seek we |
|
|
| I've limned with thy face's likeness The tablet of mine eyne |
|
|
| Flask in hand and verse-reciting, Warm with wine and laughing-eyed |
|
|
| Never once her lip of ruby Did we pree; and she is gone |
|
|
| The Universe from end to end, One moment's care unworth it is |
|
|
| Why is it my cypress unto the meads, Now Spring is here, inclineth not? |
|
|
| If that blessed bird of heaven Through my door come back again |
|
|
| Come is the festal season, With friends and roses late |
|
