Amour 4: My Faire, had I not versuri

Versuri Michael Drayton – Amour 4: My Faire, had I not lyrics

My faire, had I not erst adorned my Lute
With those sweet strings stolne from thy golden hayre,
Vnto the world had all my ioyes been mute,
Nor had I learn’d to descant on my faire.

Had not mine eye seene thy Celestiall eye,
Nor my hart knowne the power of thy name,
My soule had ne’er felt thy Diuinitie,
Nor my Muse been the trumpet of thy fame.

But thy diuine perfections, by their skill,
This miracle on my poore Muse haue tried,
And, by inspiring, glorifide my quill,
And in my verse thy selfe art deified:

Thus from thy selfe the cause is thus deriued,
That by thy fame all fame shall be suruiued.
