Whether we die or we live
G. Holst
Whether we die or we live
Matters it now no more:
Life has nought further to give,
Love is its crown and its core.
Come to us either, we're rife, --
Death or life!
Death can take not away,
Darkness and light are the same:
We are beyond the pale ray,
Wrapt in a rosier flame:
Welcome which will to one breath, --
Life or death!
