Come Away
Poet/Lyricist:
John Dowland
Sung by The Singers (Minnesota Choral Artists), directed by Matthew Culloton, as part of their 'Composers Lab' Program.
Text:
Come Away, Come Sweet Love
Come away, come sweet love,
The goulden morning breakes.
All the earth, all the ayre of love and pleasure speakes,
Teach thine armes then to embrace,
And sweet rosie lips to kisse,
And mixe our soules in mutuall blisse.
Eies were made for beauties grace,
Vewing, ruing Love's long pain
Procur'd by beauties rude disdaine.
Come away, come sweet love!
