Lyrics " Dowland: Flow My Tears "

Original text with translation

Dowland: Flow My Tears

John Potter, Stephen Stubbs, John Surman

Flow, my tears, fall from your springs!

Exiled for ever, let me mourn;

Where night’s black bird her sad infamy sings,

There let me live forlorn.

Down vain lights, shine you no more!

No nights are dark enough for those

That in despair their lost fortunes deplore.

Light doth but shame disclose.

Never may my woes be relieved,

Since pity is fled;

And tears and sighs and groans my weary days

Of all joys have deprived.

From the highest spire of contentment

My fortune is thrown;

And fear and grief and pain for my deserts

Are my hopes, since hope is gone.

Hark!

you shadows that in darkness dwell,

Learn to contemn light

Happy, happy they that in hell

Feel not the world’s despite.
