Слушать(AI)The Fishers Widow
The boats go out and the boats come
Under the wintry sky;
And the rain and foam are white in the wind,
And the white gulls cry.
She sees the sea when the wind is
Swept by a windy rain;
And her heart's a-weary of sea and

She sees the torn sails fly in the foam,
Broad on the sky-line gray;
And the boats go out and the boats come in,
But there's one away.
