Sailing to Byzantium
W. B. Yeats, 1865 – 1939
That is no country for old men. The young_x000D_ In one another’s arms, birds in the trees_x000D_ —Those dying generations—at their song,_x000D_ The salmon-falls, the mackerel-crowded seas,_x000D_ Fish, flesh, or fowl, commend all summer long_x000D_ Whatever is begotten, born, and dies._x000D_ Caught in that sensual music all neglect_x000D_ Monuments of unageing intellect._x000D_ _x000D_ An aged man is but a paltry thing,_x000D_ A tattered coat upon a stick, unless_x000D_ Soul clap its hands and sing, and louder sing_x000D_ For every tatter in its mortal dress,_x000D_ Nor is there singing school but studying_x000D_ Monuments of its own magnificence;_x000D_ And therefore I have sailed the seas and come_x000D_ To the holy city of Byzantium._x000D_ _x000D_ O sages standing in God’s holy fire_x000D_ As in the gold mosaic of a wall,_x000D_ Come from the holy fire, perne in a gyre,_x000D_ And be the singing-masters of my soul._x000D_ Consume my heart away; sick with desire_x000D_ And fastened to a dying animal_x000D_ It knows not what it is; and gather me_x000D_ Into the artifice of eternity._x000D_ _x000D_ Once out of nature I shall never take_x000D_ My bodily form from any natural thing,_x000D_ But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make_x000D_ Of hammered gold and gold enamelling_x000D_ To keep a drowsy Emperor awake;_x000D_ Or set upon a golden bough to sing_x000D_ To lords and ladies of Byzantium_x000D_ Of what is past, or passing, or to come.
