Lie Still, Sleep Becalmed - Richard Burton
Lie still sleep becalmed
Sufferer with the wound
In the throat burning and turning
All night afloat
On the silent sea we have heard the sound
That came from the wound wrapped
In the salt sheet
Under the mile off moon we trembled listening
To the sea sound flowing like
Blood from the loud wound
And when the salt sheet broke
In a storm of singing
The voices of all the drowned swam on the wind
Open a pathway through the slow sad sail
Throw wide to the wind
The gates of the wandering boat
For my voyage to begin to the end of my wound
We heard the sea sound sing
We saw the salt sheet tell
Lie still sleep becalmed
Hide the mouth in the throat
Or we shall obey
And ride with you through the drowned
