  1. The Wild Swans at CoolebyW.B. Yeats Γεωργία Κίτσιου

  2. The trees are in their autumn beauty,   The woodland paths are dry,

  3. Under the October twilight the water   Mirrors a stillsky;

  4. Upon the brimming water among the stones   Are nine-and-fifty swans.

  5. The nineteenth autumn has come upon me   Since I first made my count;

  6. I saw, before I had well finished, All suddenly mount

  7. And scatter wheeling in great broken rings   Upon their clamorous wings.

  8. I have looked upon those brilliant creatures,   And now my heart is sore

  9. All's changed since I, hearing at twilight,   The first time on this shore,

  10. The bell-beat of their wings above my head,   Trod with a lighter tread.

  11. Unwearied still, lover by lover, They paddle in the cold

  12. Companionable streams or climb the air;   Their hearts have not grown old;

  13. Passion or conquest, wander where they will,   Attend upon them still.

  14. But now they drift on the still water,   Mysterious, beautiful;   

  15. Among what rushes will they build, By what lake's edge or pool

  16. Delight men's eyes when I awake some day   To find they have flown away?
