Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDE DFDF GHGH IJIJ GKGK LHLH DMDM DNDN LOLO PBPB DQDQ DRDS NTN DHDH GNGN DUDVLoud without the wind was roaring | A |
Through th' autumnal sky | B |
Drenching wet the cold rain pouring | A |
Spoke of winter nigh | B |
All too like that dreary eve | C |
Did my exiled spirit grieve | C |
- | |
Grieved at first but grieved not long | D |
Sweet how softly sweet it came | E |
Wild words of an ancient song | D |
Undefined without a name | E |
- | |
'It was spring and the skylark was singing' | D |
Those words they awakened a spell | F |
They unlocked a deep fountain whose springing | D |
Nor absence nor distance can quell | F |
- | |
In the gloom of a cloudy November | G |
They uttered the music of May | H |
They kindled the perishing ember | G |
Into fervour that could not decay | H |
- | |
Awaken o'er all my dear moorland | I |
West wind in thy glory and pride | J |
Oh call me from valley and lowland | I |
To walk by the hill torrent's side | J |
- | |
It is swelled with the first snowy weather | G |
The rocks they are icy and hoar | K |
And sullenly waves the long heather | G |
And the fern leaves are sunny no more | K |
- | |
There are no yellow stars on the mountain | L |
The bluebells have long died away | H |
From the brink of the moss bedded fountain | L |
From the side of the wintry brae | H |
- | |
But lovelier than corn fields all waving | D |
In emerald and vermeil and gold | M |
Are the heights where the north wind is raving | D |
And the crags where I wandered of old | M |
- | |
It was morning the bright sun was beaming | D |
How sweetly it brought back to me | N |
The time when nor labour nor dreaming | D |
Broke the sleep of the happy and free | N |
- | |
But blithely we rose as the dawn heaven | L |
Was melting to amber and blue | O |
And swift were the wings to our feet given | L |
As we traversed the meadows of dew | O |
- | |
For the moors For the moors where the short grass | P |
Like velvet beneath us should lie | B |
For the moors For the moors where each high pass | P |
Rose sunny against the clear sky | B |
- | |
For the moors where the linnet was trilling | D |
Its song on the old granite stone | Q |
Where the lark the wild sky lark was filling | D |
Every breast with delight like its own | Q |
- | |
What language can utter the feeling | D |
Which rose when in exile afar | R |
On the brow of a lonely hill kneeling | D |
I saw the brown heath growing there | S |
- | |
It was scattered and stunted and told me | N |
That soon even that would be gone | T |
It whispered 'The grim walls enfold me | N |
I have bloomed in my last summer's sun ' | - |
- | |
But not the loved music whose waking | D |
Makes the soul of the Swiss die away | H |
Has a spell more adored and heartbreaking | D |
Than for me in that blighted heath lay | H |
- | |
The spirit which bent 'neath its power | G |
How it longed how it burned to be free | N |
If I could have wept in that hour | G |
Those tears had been heaven to me | N |
- | |
Well well the sad minutes are moving | D |
Though loaded with trouble and pain | U |
And some time the loved and the loving | D |
Shall meet on the mountains again | V |
