My Gentle Child Lyrics – Teresa del Riego

My fairest child, I have no song to give you;
No lark could pipe in skies so dull and gray;
Yet, if you will, one quiet hint I’ll leave you
For every day

I’ll tell you how to sing a clearer carol
Than lark who hails the dawn or breezy down
To earn yourself a purer poet’s laurel
Than Shakespeare’s crown

Be good, sweet maid, and let who can be clever;
Do lovely things, not dream them, all day long;
And so make Life, and Death, and that For Ever
One grand sweet song
