TESTO DEL LIED

"Love's tempest"
di Rosa Harriet Jeaffreson Newmarch (1857-1940)

Silent lay the sapphire ocean,
Till a tempest came to wake
All its roaring, seething billows
That upon earth's ramparts break.
Quiet was my heart within me,
Till your image, suddenly
Rising there, awoke a tumult
Wilder than the storm at sea.
