The Tree
As I see all my friends
Fall around me
Fall, to the swinging blades
I reflect upon myself
As I see all my friends
Fall around me
Fall, to the swinging blades
I reflect upon myself
Once there was a she loved a little boy
And everyday the boy would comeand he would gather her leavesand make them into crownsand play king of the forest
He would climb up her trunkand swing from her branchesand eat apples
And they ...
Im Hofe steht ein Pflaumenbaum,
Der ist so klein, man glaubt es kaum
Er hat ein Gitter drum,
So tritt ihn keiner um
my head foaming clouds, sea inside me and out I am a walnut tree in Gulhane Park an old walnut, knot by knot, shred by shred Neither you are aware of this, nor the police I am a walnut tree in Gulhane Park My leaves are nimble, nimble like fish in...
Under the greenwood tree Who loves to lie with me, And turn his merry note Unto the sweet bird's throat, Come hither, come hither, come hither: Here shall he see No enemy But winter and rough weather
Who doth ambition shun, And loves to live ...
The rain gullies the garden
And tinkles on the broad sides of grass blades
A tree, at the end of my arm, is hazy with mist
Even so,
O you shaggy-headed banyan tree standing on the bank of the pond,have you forgotten the little child, like the birds that have nested in your branches and left you
Do you not remember how he sat at the window and wondered at the tangle of you...
There's the whitebox and pine on the ridges afar,
Where the iron-bark, blue-gum, and peppermint are;
There is many another, but dearest to me,
And the king of them all was the stringy-bark tree
That ancient tree, don’t let it
Until old age is knelling;
So many things it can recall,
What tales it could be telling
Huge elm, with rifted trunk all notched and scarred,
Like to a warrior's destiny
I
To stretch me often on thy shadowed sward,
I sang my songs for the rest,
For you I am still;
The tree of my song is bare On its shining hill
For you came like a lordly wind,
There grew a little flower'Neath a great oak tree:
When the tempest 'gan to
Little heeded she:
No need had she to cower,
