LADYHAWKE'S LAMENT

At the break of day he rides this path, and startles me from sleep...
the LadyHawk that watches from my perch outside his keep.
He rides to her! which pleaseth him, to steal her heart away...
and knows me not; nor that my love grows stronger every day.


He once called ME his only love, but now it seems he's lost...
in solitude and longing...and 'tis I who pay the cost!
I am but maiden, flesh and bone, whom fate has dealt a blow.
An evil spell was cast on me! That he may never know...
that he alone was my true love. I did not break my vow!





But I cannot convey the truth, for speech evades me now.
A Warlock claimed me his to hold...and I refused his touch.
I would not then renounce my love...for I loved him so much.
So now I wear this feathered veil, my true loves knows me not.
And though I see him every morn, my image he's forgot.





My soul for'ere captured here, within this silken cape
of plummery and graceful wings, but never to escape.
Goodbye my love! My heart! My soul! you've gone beyond my glance.
And I in sorrow dare not go much farther than this branch.

There is a tether which holds me here...one no man can see.
The Warlock placed it 'round my heart, to keep my love from Thee.
Doomed forever, that I am, to watch you steal away...
across the Moors to another...at every break of day.
