Lucy Lyrics - Divine Comedy

by W. Wordsworth 

I travelled among unknown men, 

In lands beyond the sea; 

Nor, England did I know till then 

What love I bore to thee. 

'Tis past, that melancholy dream! 

Nor will I quit thy shore 

A second time; for still I seem 

To love thee more and more. 

Among thy mountains did I feel 

The joy of my desire; 

And she I cherished turned her wheel 

Beside an English fire.

Thy mornings showed, thy nights concealed, 

The bowers where Lucy played; 

And thine too is the last green field 

That Lucy's eyes surveyed. 

She dwelt among the untrodden ways 

Beside the springs of Dove, 

A Maid whom there were none to praise 

And very few to love: 

A violet by a mossy stone 

Half hidden from the eye 

-Fair as a star, when only one 

Is shining in the sky. 

She lived unknown, and few could know 

When Lucy ceased to be; 

But she is in her grave and, oh, 

The difference to me 

Photos 

A slumber did my spirit seal; 

I had no human fears; 

She seemed a thing that could not feel 

The touch of earthly years. 

No motion has she now, no force; 

She neither hears nor sees; 

Rolled around in earth's diurnal course, 

With rocks, and stones, and trees.
