SHIP IN STORM, by IBN DARRAJ AL-ANDALUSI First Line: The billows swarmed, impeding Last Line: A firmament of night. Alternate Author Name(s): Ibn Darraj Al-qastalli | |||
The billows swarmed, impeding The voyagers who flew Upon a swan's back, speeding The stormy waters through. The ship was lent by morning A pinion broad and bright; It fluttered there, adorning A firmament of night. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...NIGHT AND DAY by IBN DARRAJ AL-ANDALUSI THE WING OF SEPARATION by IBN DARRAJ AL-ANDALUSI MY DEATH AS A GIRL I KNEW by JAMES GALVIN WITH CHAOS IN EACH KISS by TIMOTHY LIU JOHN MOULDY by WALTER JOHN DE LA MARE A SHROPSHIRE LAD: 50 by ALFRED EDWARD HOUSMAN NORTHERN FARMER, OLD STYLE by ALFRED TENNYSON ROMANCE OF DUNOIS by HORTENSE DE BEAUHARNAIS THE SONG OF CAPTIVE ISRAEL by MARY ELIZABETH BROOKS |
