Who has seen the wind scalloping the sea
|
Or gliding like a swallow over villages and trees?
|
"I have," said the willow,
|
"And I begged him please to stay, but he went away,
|
He went on his own one day." And I sing
|
"One love have I," and he sings, "Now it's goodbye,"
|
And I sing "Part of me dies until I see you again."
|
Who has seen the sun through a parasol of leaves,
|
Through scattered ruby cloud fires, through the silver wings of bees?
|
"I have," said the waters, "and I held his face to mine,
|
But he left in time, he went in his own good time."
|
And I sing "One love have I," and he sings,
|
"Now it's goodbye," and I sing
|
"Part of me dies until I see you again."
|
Who has seen the stranger in a coat of simple brown,
|
With his face of many faces, with his eyes turned out of town?
|
I have and I kissed him and I begged him please to stay,
|
But he went away, with the sun and the wind away.
|
And I sing "One love have I," and he sings,
|
"Now it's goodbye," and I sing
|
"Part of me dies until i see you again"
