Helen Hunt Jackson (Хелен Хант Джексон) Songs of Battle OLD as the world--no other things so old; Nay, older than the world, else, how had sprung Such lusty strength in them when earth was young?-- Stand valor and its passion hot and bold, Insatiate of battle. How, else, told Blind men, born blind, that red was fitting tongue Mute, eloquent, to show how trumpets rung When armies charged adn battle-flags unfurled? Who sings of valor speaks for life, for death, Beyond all death, and long as life is life, in rippled waves the eternal air hs breath Eternal bears to stir all noble strife. Dead Homer from his lost and vanished grave Keeps battle glorious still and soldiers brave. Helen Hunt Jackson's other poems: Распечатать (Print) Количество обращений к стихотворению: 1496 |
