The Song of Wandering Aengus by WB Yeats - Dervla Kirwan |
| [00:06.59] |
I WENT out to the hazel wood, |
| [00:09.42] |
Because a fire was in my head, |
| [00:12.05] |
And cut and peeled a hazel wand, |
| [00:13.84] |
And hooked a berry to a thread; |
| [00:16.43] |
And when white moths were on the wing, |
| [00:19.88] |
And moth-like stars were flickering out, |
| [00:22.72] |
I dropped the berry in a stream |
| [00:25.43] |
And caught a little silver trout. |
| [00:28.01] |
When I had laid it on the floor |
| [00:31.07] |
I went to blow the fire aflame, |
| [00:33.63] |
But something rustled on the floor, |
| [00:36.35] |
And some one called me by my name: |
| [00:39.32] |
It had become a glimmering girl |
| [00:41.95] |
With apple blossom in her hair |
| [00:44.27] |
Who called me by my name and ran |
| [00:46.75] |
And faded through the brightening air. |
| [00:49.92] |
Though I am old with wandering |
| [00:54.82] |
Through hollow lads and hilly lands. |
| [00:58.48] |
I will find out where she has gone, |
| [01:00.58] |
And kiss her lips and take her hands; |
| [01:03.78] |
And walk among long dappled grass, |
| [01:07.46] |
And pluck till time and times are done |
| [01:12.46] |
The silver apples of the moon, |
| [01:13.95] |
The golden apples of the sun. |
