THE HEART HAS ITS REASONS, by ANONYMOUS First Line: "sing low, my heart, lest we be overheard" Last Line: "let not its mockery hurt you. Ah, sing low" | |||
Sing low, my heart, lest we be overheard, This world is not the Paradise we knew. Let not its mockery trap us in a word Or catch one troubled cry from me or you. Let the deep song be hidden in the deep Pulse with our life-blood, waking or asleep, Yours is the knowledge earth can never know. Let not its mockery hurt you. Ah, sing low. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest..."'TIS MIDNIGHT, AND THE SETTING SUN" by ANONYMOUS "'TWAS ROLLOG, AND THE MINIM POTES" by ANONYMOUS 1648 : FOR COSSACKS by ANONYMOUS A CHERRY YEAR / A MERRY YEAR by ANONYMOUS A COMET FROM THE RHYMERS' CLUB AFAR by ANONYMOUS "A FOX, A FOX, UP GALLANTS TO THE FIELDS" by ANONYMOUS A HORSE AND A FLEA AND THREE BLIND MICE by ANONYMOUS "A LAIRD, A LORD / A COOPER, A THIEF" by ANONYMOUS A LITTLE COCK SPARROW SAT ON A GREEN TREE by ANONYMOUS |
