Robert Herrick - To Daffodils: Fair Daffodils We Weep to See Lyrics

Lyrics To Daffodils: Fair Daffodils We Weep to See - Robert Herrick



Fair daffodils, we weep to see you haste away so soon
As yet the early-rising sun has not attained his noon
Stay, stay, until the hasting day has run, but to the even-song
And having prayed together, we will go with you along
We have short time to stay, as you, we have as short a spring
As quick a growth to meet decay, as you, or anything
We die as your hours do, and dry away, like to the summer's rain
Or as the pearls of morning's dew, ne'er to be found again
