To Althea from Prison (带给监狱里的木槿花) (Manor Studio Version) - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)/David Rea[00:00:00]

Written by：Dave Swarbrick/Richard Lovelace[00:00:01]

When love with unconfined wings[00:00:05]

Hovers within my gates[00:00:10]

And my divine Althea brings to whisper at my grates[00:00:13]

When I lie tangled in her hair[00:00:21]

And fettered with her eye[00:00:25]

The birds that wanton in the air know no such liberty[00:00:29]

When flowing cups run swiftly round[00:00:39]

With no allaying Thames[00:00:43]

Our careless heads with roses crowned[00:00:47]

Our hearts with royal flames[00:00:51]

When first decreeth in wine we steep[00:00:55]

When healths and rafts run free[00:00:59]

Fishes that tipple in the deep know no such liberty[00:01:04]

When it's if like commit finnI[00:01:12]

With shriller throat shall sing[00:01:15]

The mercy sweetness majesty[00:01:20]

And glories of my king[00:01:23]

When I shall joys aloud how good[00:01:28]

He is how great should be[00:01:32]

Enlarged winds that curl the flood[00:01:37]

Know no such liberty[00:01:40]

Stone walls do not a prison make not iron bars a cage[00:01:47]

Minds innocent and quiet take that for a Hermitage[00:01:55]

And if I have freedom in my love[00:02:03]

And in my soul am free[00:02:07]

Angels alone that soar above enjoy such liberty[00:02:12]
