Away Away



Damn you Nightingale!

Must thee plaint ev’ry darling morn?

Hush Hush Away!

Mi son still snore by six upon mi chest

Away away Migrate!

Flee far o’er mi window

For mi son’s pleasure grows height in sports

 Ay! Not in music!

 Away Away Flee!

 Hath is it been thee

Thou wilt murmur with thy awful beak

Away! Sing along the whistling air

Or seek Apollo and be servant

For music thy glorious boon.
