The Housatonic at Stockbridge, per voce e pianoforte
The Housatonic at Stockbridge
Contented river in thy dreamy realm
The cloudy willow and the plumy elm:
Thou beautiful! in ev'ry dreamy hill
What eye but wanders with thee at thy will.
Contented river! And yet overshy
To mask thy beauty from the eager eye;
Hast thou a thought to hide from field and town?
In some deep current of the sunlit brown.
Ah! there's a restive ripple,
And swift red leaves
September's firstlings faster drift;
Wouldst thou away, dear stream?
Come, whisper near!
I also of much resting have a fear;
Let me tomorrow thy companion be,
By fall and shallow to the adventurous sea!
(testo di Robert Underwood Johnson, 1921)
