letra de alfred austin - my winter rose - richard mitchley
why did you come when the trees were bare?
why did you come with the wintry air?
when the faint note dies in the robin’s throat
and the gables drip and the white flakes float?
what a strange, strange season to choose to come
when the heavens are blind and the earth is dumb:
when nought is left living to dirge the dead
and even the snowdrop keeps its bed!
could you not come when woods are green?
could you not comе when lambs are seen?
when thе primrose laughs from its childlike sleep
and the violets hide and the bluebells peep?
when the air as your breath is sweet, and skies
have all but the soul of your limpid eyes
and the year, growing confident day by day
weans l-sty june from the breast of may?
yet had you come then, the lark had lent
in vain his music, the th-rn its scent
in vain the woodbine budded, in vain
the rippling smile of the april rain
your voice would have silenced merle and thrush
and the rose outbloomed would have blushed to blush
and summer, seeing you, paused, and known
that the glow of your beauty outshone its own
so, timely you came, and well you chose
you came when most needed, my winter rose
from the snow i pluck you, and fondly press
your leaves ‘twixt the leaves of my leaflessness
