Song

Who bade you go?
The wind or the snow?
Tell me, my love,
Who bade you go?

Dreaming last night
I loved you again,
Saw you and touched you
But woke with the rain.

We were the sailors,
Utterly pinned,
To Love's tall star
And Time's salt wind.

Who bade you go?
Ask the wind, ask the snow?
In this evil weather
Who bade you go?

Lyster Paul.
