Adelaide Crapsey (Аделаида Крапси)


As I Went


As I went, as I went
Over the mountains,
I heard, I heard,
Through cloud-wreath and mist,
A hound that was baying —
Death . . it was death.

As I went, as I went
Over the meadows,
I heard, I heard,
From thicket, from shadow,
A hidden bird fluting —
Death . . it was death.

As I went, as I went
By rocks and by sand-dunes,
I heard, I heard,
At the dea's bottom
A silver fish swimming —
Death . . it was death.

As I went, as I went
In my house, in my house,
I heard, I heard,
A footfall, a footfall
Closely behind me —
Death . . it was death.
