Lyrics

When the gloom is on the wave A shell unto the shore I bring And then upon the rocks I sit And plaintive sing The weary lullaby what time she rocks Her babe, and murmurs music sad and low So sad and low as if this tower did keep The murmur of the years as a sea-shell The sea... O what is this wild song I sing With meanings strange and dim? No soul and I, a wave am I And sing the Moon-child's hymn
