William Blake, "The Sick Rose"

The Sick Rose

O rose thou art sick.
The invisible worm.
That flies in the night In the howling storm.
Has found out thy bed Of crimson joy,
And his dark secret love Does thy life destroy.

Oh, Rosa, estás enferma:
El gusano invisible
Que vuela en la noche, en la ululante
Tormenta,
Ha encontrado tu tálamo de
Gozo carmesí
Y su oscuro y secreto amor te destruye la vida.

That is a poem! Not many poems in the English language can measure up to

this one. And the music fulfills it to

perfection. Am I gushing? so what. I recognize Blake's genius, and I don;t mind mentioning it. Whoever put this here,

THANK YOU.
