Heaven-Haven: A Nun Takes the Veil lyrics

by

Gerard Manley Hopkins

Heaven—Haven
A nun takes the veil


    I HAVE desired to go
       Where springs not fail,
To fields where flies no sharp and sided hail
    And a few lilies blow.

    And I have asked to be
       Where no storms come,
Where the green swell is in the havens dumb,
    And out of the swing of the sea.
