I travelled among unknown men

字號:


     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; 10
     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.
