The Crowning of Peace

Llinellau gan Maiden (Cyfanswm: 32)

 
(1, 0) 13 Mother, we must believe!
(1, 0) 14 Did they not say that, if the young men went upon this quest, then they should find her?
(1, 0) 15 And they have gone.
 
(1, 0) 44 Yes, little one.
(1, 0) 45 I was happy also.
(1, 0) 46 I walked with my lover in the closing of the day.
(1, 0) 47 I saw the light in his eyes when I came near.
(1, 0) 48 We were chosen, each for each.
(1, 0) 49 We had our own truth and trusted.
(1, 0) 50 We did not know the future, but we had no fear.
(1, 0) 51 It was a way, hidden not by darkness, but by a mist where a white lamp shone.
(1, 0) 52 Oh!
(1, 0) 53 It has been bitter for the lovers, and many such as I have nothing now but memory.
 
(1, 0) 60 Here comes one whose face we know.
 
(1, 0) 81 You speak thus in the market place!
(1, 0) 82 You cloud the sky, when we look towards the sun.
(1, 0) 83 O Man of Doubt, will not there still be tears enough?
(1, 0) 84 Do you not see the people would have her Queen for evermore?
 
(1, 0) 90 Voices, many joyful voices.
 
(1, 0) 95 Oh!
(1, 0) 96 If it should be the Queen.
 
(1, 0) 106 A crowd of men and women.
(1, 0) 107 And they are glad!
 
(1, 0) 113 One clothed in white!
(1, 0) 114 Her face is calm and beautiful.
(1, 0) 115 They press about her.
(1, 0) 116 She smiles, and—oh!—her smile is blessing.
 
(1, 0) 120 O God, we thank Thee now; we who love them and are loved!
 
(1, 0) 124 Someone who leads her by the hand towards the throne.
 
(1, 0) 128 A young man, weary and broken, dressed in a soldier's clothes.
 
(1, 0) 153 Oh, give us back those smiling days whose joy was greater than we knew!
 
(1, 0) 174 O lover of some lonely maid, what shall we give, whose loneliness is done?
