Over which my angry soul

is pained, compelled to erce a row;

My dove I pray that of this dole

should thou not fret thy perfect brow.

Hapless cause and restless mortal.

Cornered bird and erring child;

Forcing back the sad affrontal,

Hid from their face run wild, run wild.

A place of rest within thy shadow

Beyond the void that haunts our dreams.

Sprint, fly home, my little sparrow.

Spare thy wings from these mournful schemes.

For thou, of all, must shouldst not know:

Remain oblivious to my cries.

And I though blue-veined in the snow

Must be stark summer in your eyes.

Theirs and yours, my clueless urchin.

Theirs and yours or do us part

shall the looming storms most certain

Strike so clean through unknowing heart.

If say the heavens that had wrought

For us on earth this fateful truce:

To be severed, this we ought;

Then for recalling we've no use.
