letra de merciful town - percy grainger
over the edge of the purple down
where the single lamplight gleams
know ye the road to the merciful town
that is hard by the sea of dreams —
where the poor may lay their wrongs away
and the sick may forget to weep?
but we — pity us! oh, pity us!
we wakeful; ah, pity us! —
we must go back with policeman day —
back from the city of sleep!
weary they turn from the scroll and crown
fetter and prayer and plough —
they that go up to the merciful town
for her gates are closing now
it is thеir right in the baths of night
body and soul to steep
but we — pity us! ah, pity us!
we wakеful; oh, pity us! —
we must go back with policeman day —
back from the city of sleep!
over the edge of the purple down
ere the tender dreams begin
look — we may look — at the merciful town
but we may not enter in!
outcasts all, from her guarded wall
back to our watch we creep:
we — pity us! ah, pity us!
we wakeful; ah, pity us! —
we that go back with policeman day —
back from the city of sleep!
