Lyrics

Grantchester Meadows

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Icy wind of nights be gone, this is not your domain

In the sky, a bird is heard to cry

Misty morning whisperings and gentle stirring sounds

Belied the deathly silence that lay all around

Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox

Gone to ground

See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water

And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees

Laughing as it passes through the endless summer

Making for the sea

In the lazy water meadow, I lay me down

All around me, golden sun flakes settle on the ground

Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon

Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room

Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox

Gone to ground

See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water

And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees

Laughing as it passes through the endless summer

Making for the sea

In the lazy water meadow, I lay me down

All around me, golden sun flakes covering the ground

Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon

Bringing sounds of yesterday into my city room

Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox

Gone to ground

See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water

And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees

Laughing as it passes through the endless summer

Making for the sea
