I will walk on the earth
J. Ireland
I will walk on the earth
Up to the top o' the trees,
Where sway the bird and the breeze,
And Song's wild eyes
Look to the skies:
Up to the top o' the trees,
Up to the top o' the trees!
Up to the peaks o' the cloud,
Where Echo's suburbs crowd
The lightning's flash
And thund'rous crash:
Up to the peaks o' the cloud,
Up to the peaks o' the cloud!
Nay, I will walk on the earth;
My love them all is worth:
In Love I see
All of them be,
And more - more -
I will walk on the earth,
I will walk on the earth!
