I dare not look again!
In those vast depths of infinite blue
There are visions of joy and love as true
As ever haunted a poet's ken.
This sordid earth's my lot;
Those dreams must be forgot —
I dare not look again.
I dare not look again!
Those dreams must be forgot
The infinite blue, with its love so true
And the visions I dare not pen.
This sordid earth's my lot.
Heavens! might I but look again!
