Here, where the world is quiet; | |||
Here, where all trouble seems | |||
Here, where the world is quiet; | Dead winds' and spent waves' riot | ||
In doubtful dreams of dreams; | |||
Dead winds' and spent waves' riot | I watch the green field growing | ||
For reaping folk and sowing, | |||
I watch the green field growing | For harvest-time and mowing, | ||
For reaping folk and sowing, | A sleepy world of streams. | ||
For harvest-time and mowing, | |||
I am tired of tears and laughter, | I am tired of tears and laughter, | ||
And men that laugh and weep; | |||
Of what may come hereafter | Of what may come hereafter | ||
For men that sow to reap: | |||
I am weary of days and hours, | I am weary of days and hours, | ||
Blown buds of barren flowers, | Blown buds of barren flowers, | ||
Desires and dreams and powers | Desires and dreams and powers | ||
And everything but sleep. | |||
Here life has death for neighbour, | Here life has death for neighbour, | ||
And far from eye or ear | |||
Wan waves and wet winds labour, | Wan waves and wet winds labour, | ||
Weak ships and spirits steer; | |||
They drive adrift, and whither | They drive adrift, and whither | ||
They wot not who make thither; | They wot not who make thither; | ||
But no such winds blow hither, | But no such winds blow hither, | ||
And no such things grow here. | |||
No growth of moor or coppice, | No growth of moor or coppice, | ||
No heather-flower or vine, | |||
But bloomless buds of poppies, | But bloomless buds of poppies, | ||
Green grapes of Proserpine, | |||
Pale beds of blowing rushes | Pale beds of blowing rushes | ||
Where no leaf blooms or blushes | Where no leaf blooms or blushes | ||
Save this whereout she crushes | Save this whereout she crushes | ||
For dead men deadly wine. | |||

English text
Here, where the world is quiet;
Here, where all trouble seems
Dead winds' and spent waves' riot
In doubtful dreams of dreams;
I watch the green field growing
For reaping folk and sowing,
For harvest-time and mowing,
A sleepy world of streams.
I am tired of tears and laughter,
And men that laugh and weep;
Of what may come hereafter
For men that sow to reap:
I am weary of days and hours,
Blown buds of barren flowers,
Desires and dreams and powers
And everything but sleep.
Here life has death for neighbour,
And far from eye or ear
Wan waves and wet winds labour,
Weak ships and spirits steer;
They drive adrift, and whither
They wot not who make thither;
But no such winds blow hither,
And no such things grow here.
No growth of moor or coppice,
No heather-flower or vine,
But bloomless buds of poppies,
Green grapes of Proserpine,
Pale beds of blowing rushes
Where no leaf blooms or blushes
Save this whereout she crushes
For dead men deadly wine.
(The original poems consists of twelve strophes. In this setting the first four have been used.)
