how bright does englands' light still shine?
how bright
does englands' light still shine?
in poets' heart
tis dream sublime.
enough to wrest the breath
from me
when last i venture 'cross cold sea.
to ferry man
i asked in vain,
do english speak still with refrain?
in courteous
and careful thought,
will treasure mark this blessed spot?
but ferry man was
mute this night,
as spirits
are but waves of light.
still answered me without delay
he smiled
and pointed england’s way!
