Agalloch A Poem By Yeats Lyrics

A Poem By Yeats lyrics
The brawling of a sparrow in the eaves,
The brilliant moon and all the milky sky,
And all that famous harmony of leaves,
Had blotted out man's image and his cry.

A girl arose that had red mournful lips
And seemed the greatness of the world in tears,
Doomed like Odysseus and the labouring ships
( From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/a/agalloch-lyrics/a-poem-by-yeats-lyrics.html )
And proud as Priam murdered with his peers;

Arose, and on the instant clamorous eaves,
A climbing moon upon an empty sky,
And all that lamentation of the leaves,
Could but compose man's image and his cry.

[From the poem "The Sorrow of Love" by William Butler Yeats]
