[Verse]
A#m F# G# F A#m F# G# F7
The brawling of a sparrow in the eaves,
A#m F# G# F A#m F# G# F7
The brilliant moon and all the milky sky,
A#m F# G# F A#m F# G# F7
And all that famous harmony of leaves,
A#m F# G# F A#m F# G# F7
Had blotted out man's image and his cry.

sorrow
[Verse]
A#m F# G# F7
A# girl arose that had red mournful lips
A#m F# G# F7
And seemed the greatness of the world in tears,
A#m F# G# F7
Doomed like Odysseus and the labouring ships
A#m F# G# F7
And proud as Priam murdered with his peers;
[Verse]
A#m F# G# F A#m F# G# F7
Arose, and on the instant clamorous eaves,
A#m F# G# F A#m F# G# F7
A# climbing moon upon an empty sky,
A#m F# G# F A#m F# G# F7
And all that lamentation of the leaves,
A#m
Could but (mute) compose man's image and his cry.
