AH! SUNFLOWER

Set by John Mitchell  (1941-) op. 25, Visions from the Flame, no. 4 (1977).
Text by William Blake (1757-1827)


Ah Sunflower! weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the Sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller's journey is done;

Where the Youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves, and aspire
Where my Sunflower wishes to go!
