Send out the singers let the room be still	A
They have not eased my pain nor brought me sleep	B
Close out the sun for I would have it dark	C
That I may feel how black the grave will be	D
The sun is setting for the light is red	E
And you are outlined in a golden fire	F
Like Ursula upon an altar screen	G
Come leave the light and sit beside my bed	E
For I have had enough of saints and prayers	H
Strange broken thoughts are beating in my brain	I
They come and vanish and again they come	J
It is the fever driving out my soul	K
And Death stands waiting by the arras there	L
	-
Ornella I will speak for soon my lips	M
Shall keep a silence till the end of time	N
You have a mouth for loving listen then	O
Keep tryst with Love before Death comes to tryst	P
For I who die could wish that I had lived	Q
A little closer to the world of men	O
Not watching always thro' the blazoned panes	R
That show the world in chilly greens and blues	S
And grudge the sunshine that would enter in	T
I was no part of all the troubled crowd	U
That moved beneath the palace windows here	V
And yet sometimes a knight in shining steel	W
Would pass and catch the gleaming of my hair	L
And wave a mailed hand and smile at me	D
Whereat I made no sign and turned away	X
Affrighted and yet glad and full of dreams	Y
Ah dreams and dreams that asked no answering	Z
I should have wrought to make my dreams come true	A2
But all my life was like an autumn day	X
Full of gray quiet and a hazy peace	B2
	-
What was I saying All is gone again	O
It seemed but now I was the little child	C2
Who played within a garden long ago	D2
Beyond the walls the festal trumpets blared	E2
Perhaps they carried some Madonna by	F2
With tossing ensigns in a sea of flowers	G2
A painted Virgin with a painted Child	C2
Who saw for once the sweetness of the sun	H2
Before they shut her in an altar niche	I2
Where tapers smoke against the windy gloom	J2
I gathered roses redder than my gown	K2
And played that I was Saint Elizabeth	L2
Whose wine had turned to roses in her hands	M2
And as I played a child came thro' the gate	N2
A boy who looked at me without a word	O2
As tho' he saw stretch far behind my head	E
Long lines of radiant angels row on row	D2
That day we spoke a little timidly	D
And after that I never heard the voice	P2
That sang so many songs for love of me	D
He was content to stand and watch me pass	Q2
To seek for me at matins every day	X
Where I could feel his eyes the while I prayed	R2
I think if he had stretched his hands to me	D
Or moved his lips to say a single word	O2
I might have loved him he had wondrous eyes	S2
	-
Ornella are you there I cannot see	D
Is every one so lonely when he dies	S2
	-
The room is filled with lights with waving lights	T2
Who are the men and women 'round the bed	E
What have I said Ornella Have they heard	O2
There was no evil hidden in my life	U2
And yet and yet I would not have them know	D2
	-
Am I not floating in a mist of light	V2
O lift me up and I shall reach the sun	H2
