(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

The Danaan children laugh， in cradles of wrought¹ gold，

And clap their hands together， and half close their eyes，

For they will ride the North when the ger-eagle flies，

With heavy whitening wings， and a heart fallen cold：

I kiss my wailing² child and press it to my breast，

And hear the narrow graves calling my child and me.

Desolate³ winds that cry over the wandering sea；

Desolate winds that hover⁴ in the flaming West；

Desolate winds that beat the doors of Heaven， and beat

The doors of Hell and blow there many a whimpering ghost；

O heart the winds have shaken， the unappeasable host

Is comelier⁵ than candles at Mother Mary‘s feet.
