[00:00.00] O what can ail thee knight-at-arms
[00:02.59] Alone and palely loitering?
[00:05.51] The sedge has wither'd from the Lake
[00:08.45] And no birds sing!
[00:10.63]
[00:11.87] O what can ail thee knight-at-arms
[00:14.00] So haggard and so woe-begone?
[00:17.11] The squirrel's granary is full
[00:19.90] And the harvest's done.
[00:22.10]
[00:23.14] I see a lily on thy brow
[00:25.44] With anguish moist and fever dew
[00:28.77] And on thy cheeks a fading rose
[00:30.92] Fast withereth too—
[00:32.83]
[00:33.84] I met a Lady in the Meads
[00:36.88] Full beautiful, a faery's child
[00:40.54] Her hair was long, her foot was light
[00:44.32] And her eyes were wild—
[00:46.68]
[00:47.37] I made a Garland for her head,
[00:50.02] And bracelets too, and fragrant zone:
[00:52.96] She look'd at me as she did love
[00:55.73] And made sweet moan—
[00:58.14]
[00:59.37] I set her on my pacing steed
[01:01.87] And nothing else saw all day long
[01:04.60] For sidelong would she bend and sing
[01:07.17] A faery's song—
[01:09.07]
[01:10.32] She found me roots of relish sweet
[01:13.32] And honey wild and manna dew
[01:15.53] And sure in language strange she said
[01:18.89] "I love thee true"—
[01:21.31]
[01:22.43] She took me to her elfin grot
[01:25.16] And there she wept and sigh'd full sore
[01:28.69] And there I shut her wild wild eyes
[01:31.57] With kisses four.
[01:33.57]
[01:34.42] And there she lulled me asleep
[01:37.06] And there I dream'd—Ah Woe betide!
[01:40.65] The latest dream I ever dreamt
[01:43.45] On the cold hill's side.
[01:46.10]
[01:47.30] I saw pale kings and princes too
[01:50.49] Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;
[01:54.56] They cried "La belle dame sans merci
[01:57.96] Hath thee in thrall."
[02:00.30]
[02:01.33] I saw their starv'd lips in the gloam
[02:04.04] With horrid warning gaped wide
[02:07.17] And I awoke and found me here
[02:10.02] On the cold hill's side.
[02:12.77]
[02:13.90] And this is why I sojourn here
[02:16.53] Alone and palely loitering;
[02:19.85] Though the sedge is wither'd from the Lake,
[02:23.54] And no birds sing—
[00:00.00] O what can ail thee knightatarms
[00:02.59] Alone and palely loitering?
[00:05.51] The sedge has wither' d from the Lake
[00:08.45] And no birds sing!
[00:10.63]
[00:11.87] O what can ail thee knightatarms
[00:14.00] So haggard and so woebegone?
[00:17.11] The squirrel' s granary is full
[00:19.90] And the harvest' s done.
