"Daffodils" (1804)
I wander'd lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
By William Wordsworth (1770-1850).
Nice article about Daffodils angelatunner.co....
Oh, how I adore this man. His voice is silk and stone to me, he ambles, whispers, lithe and visceral, crisp and sweet, he sleeps where even answers ask to be withheld if only so to keep him here a breath longer, a breath along through Time, and from the pulsing of his seeth and seed all the ages' screaming speak their peace.
dang girl sounds like he fell out of your bed
beautifull.....
just beautifull.@@shopkinslpskidsplay8677
I admit I looked this guy up just so I could hear Scar's voice again.
me too!!!!
That was over in record time! My mother used to read us this when we were kids, and savoured every word.
Jeremy Irons and Alan Rickman have the most perfect voices in the world
hear Tom O'Bedlam
One of the most beautyfull voices ever...
Often times these classic poems are read without any expression, but I like this rendition of Wordsworth. Irons has just enough expression while leaving his voice cool and even. Great balance,
I can't help but imagine Scar reading it. So well read , I love it!!!
What a beautiful poem. I wish I could write as well as this.
It's a joy to listen!
his voice.....
the soft pronounciation of the T,
the low vibrato under the lines he's reading.
I could listen to him
for
ever...
great narration!
A HOST OF GOLDEN DAFFODILS....,ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL POEMS
EVER WRITTEN.....💕💕💋😎
i started the day this with Jeromy today
Jeremy s voice is always good to listen to
But I think he should phrase and pause more.
Rather than simply recite at a slower pace
Scar's voice is perfect!
I have to learn this off for tomorrow, just listening to this is enough.
love the poem of the daffodils, and this time of the year,, they are around,, as Wordsworth, would see them, ,, as a child i learn this poem,, and the words are so beautiful,,,
Thank you! Beautiful!
Oh, Scar. Such a well-read lion. He also read James & the Giant Peach, though I'm not sure if he saw the movie...
what an amazingly smooth voice he has!! =)
Got a bus to catch, Jeremy?
Yeah, he mailed this one in. Sheesh.
😂👏
OMG Soo beautiful. Beautiful poem and beautiful voice.
I think that too.Jeremy Irons has really wonderful [and a bit creepy] voice.I wish there were more poems read by him.Or Christpher Lee...
Perfect example of how the beauty of the poems of the romantic era can be marred by modern rendition. Wish I had not heard it.
I really do love Wordsworth.
Beautiful voice!
Thanks for sharing
I have this all learned and I'm in 5th class I'm getting a test on it tomorrow.I'm so not worrying I can now just relax yeppeee !!!! :-)
nice poetry
The reader completely disregards the punctuation marks. Slow down
Show a bit of respect to a very accomplished actor.
He could read the phone book and make it sound wonderful.
What a voice. You can't help being drawn to listen.
I have to read that tomorrow in a poetry comp! =)=)
The reader is going too fast in my opinion.
Exactly!
you could try slowing it down to 0.75x speed
and i am try to catch his emotion, i don't have any empathy...eh..
The reading by "SpokenVerse" is far better.
It's about the daffodils moving and being happy not a funeral.
Bahaha! I'll have you know you've just made me watch that as well. All for that sweet, sweet voice.
i wish he narrated my life
I got to this page after watching a Simpsons episode that had a talking rag (that used to be a tapestry). I waited for the credits, then searched on TH-cam. Indeed his voice is its own melody. Hopefully your phone book will have some rhyme in time, and moments for creative pause to tie it all together...
I watched this video while eating a slice of apple pie.
Best experience ever. XD
He is the voice in Westminster Abbey's audioguide. Perfection.
Ha, totally! I could listen to his voice for HOURS! And I have ADHD so that means a LOT :D
...and here's my little sercret: I killed Mufasa!
hannah worthem that would be a hell of a plot twist.
Him and Alan Rickman have the most amazing voices EVER.
completely beautiful...
lol. indeed listening you have the feeling that the voice melts somehow at the end of the stanzas.
sir jeremy irons will always remain sexy. what a voice, what a face, what a man is this.
*sigh* a voice that captures a golden autumn warmth
I want Jeremy and Alan Rickman to Narriate my life
Lovely...
Lovely!
Matthew Macfadyen as well, he is even more dreamy..ugh look up Matthew Macfadyen reads a scene from Pride & Prejudice if you haven't already. My heart just shudders..All of them should narrate my life and tell me bedtimes stories before i go to bed.
WOW.. brilliant voice !! superb video !!
Irons is a NATURAL - nicely done!
Jeremy Irons, Alan Rickman, and Benedict Cumberbatch. The holy trinity of sexy voices.
his voice is so cool! And when he must play an evil, his voice EVIL! That's what i love of Jeremy Irons.
I could listen to this guy read a phone book. Goddamn, that is an awesome voice.
Yes!!!!!!to spring
screen memory is awesome
Amazing
i love it but actually the poem is actually i wandered lonely as a cloud
LOL made my day!
cries into pillow
some more of a contemplative mood would have been more suitable for this poem, but what can i say, im just a stranger....anyway, this is one if the most extraordinary works of english language to me, i use to admire it from time to time....and now, in times of political turmoil and exhaustion, when the same language is condemned to transport such ugly and unreasonable contents as in the 2020 american mess, this poem is still a source of a tiny consolation for me as a little stranger...
Very nice
Sir Jeremy Irons :D
Very good ! Finally a version without sh ... music or sounds. Thank you !!!
Omg he has the best voice ever! He is so hot!!!!!!!!!
My 3 favorite voices Benedict Cumberbatch, Jeremy Irons, and Alan Rickman, they should all make a movie together :P
Wow
His voice is like liquid silk
Aside from this being a beautiful poem, is it terrible for me to say that Jeremy Irons' voice is incredibly cool, sexy, and overall extremely sexy?
William is the name of my friend❤
All I can hear as he's reading this:
LET THEER BLOOD, RAAAAAAAAAAIIIN FROM THE SKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I wish he could read me bed time stories each night :)
Sir Jeremy Irons :D ... well perhaps one day
Wow 11 years ago
Perfect voice for Alfred
wow so nice
am I the only one that finds it funny,
and even a bit ironic that the writer is called William WORDS WORTH? X3
He's the best! For english poems or dramma anyway.
I'd kill to get that voice!
Ok. Jeremy Iron's voice is sweet...but Alan Rickman's voice is magic!
@TheRyanI23 oh, i didnt know,i studied wordsworth poetry at school and i knew it as i wandered lonely as a cloud, daffodils is also a fitting title.
Benedict's predecessor, Jeremy Brett, is also a force to be reckoned with.
@TheBlueguitar333 They showed that on a TV show I watched, they also did the perfect Sat Nav voice & it was Jeremy Irons and Ewan Mcgregor!
@QuizT13 Why do you think the Die Hard Quadrilogy is one of my favourite films ever! :P Their acting in the movies is some of the best I have seen from them, not that you ever see anything but the best from them. :) they make fabulous villians! :D
my teacher showed me this in class a week ago
Ty
I want Jeremy Irons to Narriate a novel
Jeremy, assuming that you're taking the piss as the poem richly deserves, full marks.
@coverscopyer Very pretty yellow flowers. They're the flowers scene in the background of this video. :)
Do agree he has a gorgeous vocal tone & along with another Jeremy also "Jeremy Brett"! Sigh...
long live the king
"Be prepared!" =)
I also wish he narrated my life. But I mean Wordsworth.
When was he knighted? Love both his acting and his voice! His melancholy Antonio in "The Merchant of Venice" really moves me!
to me is sweet and like he is flowing is through in a dreamy way..i love it better by him than 1001 others that i heard for it is a poem without intense emotion but a melancholic tone..it is perfect
i Study This Poetry in The School
bella
IRONS indeed has great diction and phrasing but he reads the poem too quickly and we lose the meter --
I won the big prize. Never forget your simple beginnings....
@kikikyami i would love to hear him read A Red, Red Rose by Robert Burns. I know Irons is english but i bet he could pull off the original accent
yo vagaba tan solo como una nube
Que flota en los altos valles y colinas,
Cuando de repente vi una multitud,
Un anfitrión, de narcisos dorados;
Al lado del lago, debajo de los árboles.,
Revoloteando y bailando en la brisa.
Continua como las estrellas que brillan
Y centellea en la vía láctea,
Se estiraron en una línea interminable
A lo largo del margen de una bahía:
Diez mil me vieron de un vistazo,
Sacudiendo sus cabezas en baile alegre.
Las olas a su lado bailaban; pero ellos
Superó las brillantes olas en alegría:
Un poeta no podía sino ser gay.,
En una empresa tan jocund:
Miré, y miré, pero poco pensé
Qué riqueza me trajo el espectáculo:
A menudo, cuando estoy en mi sofá miento
En estado vacante o pensativo,
Destellan sobre ese ojo interno
Cuál es la dicha de la soledad;
Y luego mi corazón con placer se llena,
Y baila con los narcisos.
1.5 speed is the hilarious. You can really hear how much he rushed this.
