letra de amy levy - ballade of an omnibus - ghizela rowe
some men to carriages aspire;
on some the costly hansoms wait;
some seek a fly, on job or hire;
some mount the trotting steed, elate
i envy not the rich and great
a wandering minstrel, poor and free
i am contented with my fate —
an omnibus suffices me
in winter days of rain and mire
i find within a corner strait;
the ‘busmen know me and my lyre
from brompton to the bull-and-gate
when summer comes, i mount in state
the topmost summit, whence i see
crœsus look up, compassionate —
an omnibus suffices me
i mark, untroubled by dеsire
lucullus’ phaeton and its freight
thе scene whereof i cannot tire
the human tale of love and hate
the city pageant, early and late
unfolds itself, rolls by, to be
a pleasure deep and delicate
an omnibus suffices me
princess, your splendour you require
i, my simplicity; agree
neither to rate lower nor higher
an omnibus suffices me
