When I had wings my brother	A
Such wings were mine as thine	B
Such life my heart remembers	C
In all as wild Septembers	C
As this when life seems other	A
Though sweet than once was mine	B
When I had wings my brother	A
Such wings were mine as thine	B
Such life as thrills and quickens	C
The silence of thy flight	D
Or fills thy note's elation	E
With lordlier exultation	E
Than man's whose faint heart sickens	C
With hopes and fears that blight	D
Such life as thrills and quickens	C
The silence of thy flight	D
Thy cry from windward clanging	F
Makes all the cliffs rejoice	C
Though storm clothe seas with sorrow	G
Thy call salutes the morrow	G
While shades of pain seem hanging	F
Round earth's most rapturous voice	C
Thy cry from windward clanging	F
Makes all the cliffs rejoice	C
We sons and sires of seamen	E
Whose home is all the sea	C
What place man may we claim it	H
But thine whose thought may name it	H
Free birds live higher than freemen	E
And gladlier ye than we	C
We sons and sires of seamen	E
Whose home is all the sea	C
For you the storm sounds only	C
More notes of more delight	D
Than earth's in sunniest weather	A
When heaven and sea together	A
Join strengths against the lonely	C
Lost bark borne down by night	D
For you the storm sounds only	C
More notes of more delight	D
With wider wing and louder	A
Long clarion call of joy	I
Thy tribe salutes the terror	A
Of darkness wild as error	A
But sure as truth and prouder	A
Than waves with man for toy	I
With wider wing and louder	A
Long clarion call of joy	I
The wave's wing spreads and flutters	C
The wave's heart swells and breaks	C
One moment's passion thrills it	H
One pulse of power fulfils it	H
And ends the pride it utters	C
When loud with life that quakes	C
The wave's wing spreads and flutters	C
The wave's heart swells and breaks	C
But thine and thou my brother	A
Keep heart and wing more high	J
Than aught may scare or sunder	A
The waves whose throats are thunder	A
Fall hurtling each on other	A
And triumph as they die	J
But thine and thou my brother	A
Keep heart and wing more high	J
More high than wrath or anguish	K
More strong than pride or fear	L
The sense or soul half hidden	E
In thee for us forbidden	E
Bids thee nor change nor languish	K
But live thy life as here	M
More high than wrath or anguish	K
More strong than pride or fear	L
We are fallen even we whose passion	E
On earth is nearest thine	E
Who sing and cease from flying	F
Who live and dream of dying	F
Grey time in time's grey fashion	E
Bids wingless creatures pine	E
We are fallen even we whose passion	E
On earth is nearest thine	E
The lark knows no such rapture	A
Such joy no nightingale	N
As sways the songless measure	A
Wherein thy wings take pleasure	A
Thy love may no man capture	A
Thy pride may no man quail	N
The lark knows no such rapture	A
Such joy no nightingale	N
And we whom dreams embolden	E
We can but creep and sing	F
And watch through heaven's waste hollow	G
The flight no sight may follow	G
To the utter bourne beholden	E
Of none that lack thy wing	F
And we whom dreams embolden	E
We can but creep and sing	F
Our dreams have wings that falter	A
Our hearts bear hopes that die	J
For thee no dream could better	A
A life no fears may fetter	A
A pride no care can alter	A
That wots not whence or why	J
Our dreams have wings that falter	A
Our hearts bear hopes that die	J
With joy more fierce and sweeter	A
Than joys we deem divine	E
Their lives by time untarnished	J
Are girt about and garnished	J
Who match the wave's full metre	A
And drink the wind's wild wine	E
With joy more fierce and sweeter	A
Than joys we deem divine	E
Ah well were I for ever	A
Wouldst thou change lives with me	C
And take my song's wild honey	C
And give me back thy sunny	C
Wide eyes that weary never	A
And wings that search the sea	C
Ah well were I for ever	A
Wouldst thou change lives with me	C
