NEW SPRING: 36, by HEINRICH HEINE Poet's Biography First Line: Day and night alike the springtime Last Line: That before my window rustle. Subject(s): Birds; Love; Spring | ||||||||
DAY and night alike the springtime Makes with sounding life all-teeming; Like a verdant echo can it Enter even in my dreaming. Then the birds sing yet more sweetly Than before, and softer breezes Fill the air, the violet's fragrance With still wilder yearning pleases. E'en the roses blossom redder, And a child-like golden glory Bear they, like the heads of angels In the pictures of old story. And myself I almost fancy Some sweet nightingale, when singing Of my love to those fair roses, Wondrous songs my vision bringing -- Till I'm waken'd by the sunlight, Or by that delicious bustle Of the nightingales of springtime That before my window rustle. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPRING LEMONADE by TONY HOAGLAND A SPRING SONG by LYMAN WHITNEY ALLEN SPRING'S RETURN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SPRING IN WINTER by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES SPRING ON THE PRAIRIE by HERBERT BATES THE FARMER'S BOY: SPRING by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD |
