To see the fruits and joys that some do find,

Flow my tears

from  Second Booke of Songes or Ayres
John Dowland (music),  Anonymous (words)


‎

United Kingdom

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.

United Kingdom
Ancient English

Flow my teares fall from your springs,
Exilde for euer: Let mee morne
where nights black bird hir sad infamy sings,
there let mee liue forlorne.

Downe vaine lights shine you no more,
No nights are dark enough for those
that in dispaire their last fortuns deplore,
light doth but shame disclose.

Neuer may my woes be relieued,
since pittie is fled,
and teares, and sighes, and grones my wearie dayes
of all joyes have depriued.

Frō the highest spire of contentment,
my fortune is throwne,
and feare, and griefe, and paine for my deserts,
are my hopes since hope is gone.

Harke you shadowes that in darcknesse dwell,
learne to contemne light,
Happie, happie they that in hell
feel not the worlds despite.[1]
