SHE WEEPS OVER RAHOON, by         Recitation         Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Rain on rahoon falls softly, softly falling
Last Line: And muttering rain.
Subject(s): Love; Rain


Rain on Rahoon falls softly, softly falling,
Where my dark lover lies.
Sad is his voice that calls me, sadly calling,
At grey moonrise.

Love, hear thou
How soft, how sad his voice is ever calling.
Ever unanswered and the dark rain falling,
Then as now.

Dark too our hearts, O love, shall lie and cold
As his sad heart has lain
Under the moongrey nettles, the black mould
And muttering rain.
