Thomas Moore - No, Not More WelcomeThomas Moore - No, Not More Welcome
Work rating: Low


No, not more welcome the fairy numbers   Of music fall on the sleeper`s ear, When half awaking from fearful slumbers,   He thinks the full quire of heaven is near Than came that voice, when, all forsaken,   This heart long had sleeping lain, Nor thought its cold pulse would ever waken   To such benign blessed sounds again. Sweet voice of comfort! `twas like the stealing   Of summer wind through some wreathed shell Each secret winding, each inmost feeling   Of all my soul echoed to its spell. `Twas whisper`d balm `twas sunshine spoken!   I`d live years of grief and pain To have my long sleep of sorrow broken   By such benign blessed sounds again.
