Hospital Lane

|
In cholera times
On hospital lane
A shed stood for the ill
When its need had gone
The men pulled it down
But the bygone ones stayed still
To this day that ground
In the emerald town
Finds the traveller visited
By demons and ghosts
And faeries fair
Here the locals fear to tread

Dirge Without Music

By Edna St. Vincent Millay
I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground.
So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind:
Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned
With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned.
Lovers and thinkers, into the earth with you.
Be one with the dull, the indiscriminate dust.
A fragment of what you felt, of what you knew,
A formula, a phrase remains, - but the best is lost.
The answers quick and keen, the honest look, the laughter, the love,—
They are gone. They are gone to feed the roses. Elegant and curled
Is the blossom. Fragrant is the blossom. I know. But I do not approve.
More precious was the light in your eyes than all the roses in the world.
Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave
Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
(Edna St. Vincent Millay, “Dirge Without Music” from Collected Poems © 1928, 1955 by Edna St. Vincent Millay and Norma Millay Ellis. Reprinted with permission of Elizabeth Barnett and Holly Peppe, Literary Executors, The Millay Society.

LA RIVIÈRE DE MES NUITS
C’est un enfant qui vient parfois la nuit
Il marche sur la berge le long de mon lit
Je l’appelle et me cache, il me cherche je l’évite
Dans son sillage planent des visions composites
Juste avant le sommeil
Juste après la lumière
Des fantômes se réveillent et descendent
La rivière de mes nuits
La rivière de mes nuits
C’est un vieillard agrippé à la vie
Ceux qu’il a pu aimer sont partis avant lui
Il glisse dans les pièces d’une maison vide
Les miroirs lui renvoient quelques reflets liquides
Juste avant le sommeil
Juste après la lumière
Des fantômes se réveillent et remontent
La rivière de mes nuits
La rivière de mes nuits
C’est moi qui retourne et retourne des pensées livides
Qui regarde flotter les spectres apatrides
De l’enfance perdue
Du mystère à venir
Juste avant le sommeil
Juste après la lumière
Des fantômes se réveillent et hantent
La rivière de mes nuits
La rivière de mes nuits

All the people
Living in the world today
All the sadness
All the times we spent
All the weakness under the sun
Hey
All the winter souls
All the weakness
Echoing the past
All the people
Even in the world today
All the sadness
All the times we spent
All the weakness all the winter souls
The darkness goes
And the winter souls
Oooh
All the winter souls

Threshold

It moves towards me
And it holds me
And lifts me up
There’s no going back now
All that was a mystery
Is no more
I’m become
No longer a shadow
But the light
I’m home

Eden

Only now I wait for you
Eden the dawn
And then it’s gone
Oh my love
Catches me
Fallen down
And I wait and I wait
Oh my love
Find me
Oh my love
Find me
Oh my love
Find me
Oh my love

I am close
To something
You don’t even see it
I am close
To something
I am
Still
Here
(I see you)
You don’t even see it
World I’m not alone now
With you in Shadowland
World I’m not alone now
With you in Shadowland
And all I say is true
Beyond the final wave
But I’m still here
I’m always here
At all times
And all places
And all things have I become

Do you forget me
Oh how danced in your dreams
Splendid in spiral
Forsaking me
In your waking
Sleep
Sleep
Go to sleep
Hasten to me now
Who is this vixen
Invading our sanctity
Lying beside you
Denying me
My territory
Sleep
Go to sleep
Sleep
Come (lay) with me now
Go to sleep
Hasten to me now
Hasten to me now
La la la la la la
Go to sleep

No living man
Can drink from the whole wine
(Because I have the most marvelous thing to say, the most marvelous thing)
No living man
Can drink from the whole wine
Can drink from the whole wine
(Because I have the most marvelous thing to say, the most marvelous thing)
No living man
Can drink from the whole wine
