ATTAR OF ROSES
The wafture of a thousand flowers is here
Concentrated from afar,
As gleams of many a steadfast sister sphere
Upon a wandering star.
Concentrated from afar,
As gleams of many a steadfast sister sphere
Upon a wandering star.
And every breath in sweet remembrance bears
The blossom whence it came,
As radiance, or genial warmth, declares
The unextinguished flame.
The blossom whence it came,
As radiance, or genial warmth, declares
The unextinguished flame.
