I	A
	-
Between two sister moorland rills	B
There is a spot that seems to lie	A
Sacred to flowerets of the hills	B
And sacred to the sky	A
And in this smooth and open dell	C
There is a tempest stricken tree	D
A corner stone by lightning cut	E
The last stone of a lonely hut	E
And in this dell you see	D
A thing no storm can e'er destroy	F
The shadow of a Danish Boy	F
	-
II	A
	-
In clouds above the lark is heard	G
But drops not here to earth for rest	H
Within this lonesome nook the bird	G
Did never build her nest	H
No beast no bird hath here his home	I
Bees wafted on the breezy air	J
Pass high above those fragrant bells	B
To other flowers to other dells	B
Their burthens do they bear	J
The Danish Boy walks here alone	K
The lovely dell is all his own	K
	-
III	A
	-
A Spirit of noon day is he	D
Yet seems a form of flesh and blood	L
Nor piping shepherd shall he be	D
Nor herd boy of the wood	M
A regal vest of fur he wears	B
In colour like a raven's wing	N
It fears not rain nor wind nor dew	O
But in the storm 'tis fresh and blue	O
As budding pines in spring	N
His helmet has a vernal grace	B
Fresh as the bloom upon his face	B
	-
IV	-
	-
A harp is from his shoulder slung	P
Resting the harp upon his knee	D
To words of a forgotten tongue	P
He suits its melody	D
Of flocks upon the neighbouring hill	Q
He is the darling and the joy	F
And often when no cause appears	B
The mountain ponies prick their ears	B
They hear the Danish Boy	F
While in the dell he sings alone	K
Beside the tree and corner stone	K
	-
V	D
	-
There sits he in his face you spy	A
No trace of a ferocious air	J
Nor ever was a cloudless sky	A
So steady or so fair	J
The lovely Danish Boy is blest	H
And happy in his flowery cove	-
From bloody deeds his thoughts are far	R
And yet he warbles songs of war	S
That seem like songs of love	-
For calm and gentle is his mien	T
Like a dead Boy he is serene	T
