In No Strange Land | Poem by Francis Thompson
My favourite poem, for my daughter Lois Teuila.
O world invisible, we view thee,
O world intangible, we touch thee,
O world unknowable, we know thee,
Inapprehensible, we clutch thee!
Does the fish soar to find the ocean,
The eagle plunge to find the air-
That we ask of the stars in motion
If they have rumour of thee there?
Not where the wheeling systems darken,
And our benumbed conceiving soars!-
The drift of pinions, would we hearken,
Beats at our own clay-shuttered doors.
The angels keep their ancient places;-
Turn but a stone and start a wing!
’Tis ye, ’tis your estrangèd faces,
That miss the many-splendoured thing.
But (when so sad thou canst not sadder)
Cry;-and upon thy so sore loss
Shall shine the traffic of Jacob’s ladder
Pitched betwixt Heaven and Charing Cross.
Yea, in the night, my Soul, my daughter,
Cry,-clinging to Heaven by the hems;
And lo, Christ walking on the water,
Not of Genesareth, but Thames!
‘In No Strange Land’
- Francis Thompson (1859-1907)
(And yes, I know it off by heart!)
O world invisible, we view thee,

If they have rumour of thee there?

Just wanted to share Vini's music to continue his legacy and inspire others. Lyrics Lately, I have had the strangest feeling With no vivid reason here to find Yet the thought of losing you's been hanging 'Round my mind Far more frequently you're wearing perfume With you say no special place to go But when I ask will you be coming back soon You don't know, never know Well, I'm a man of many wish...
