Dream Of Olwen 1948 'While I Live'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 31 May 2002

Olwen I hear you call to me
at moonrise across the golden sea;
softly, the waves make melody
to echo my song of memory,
Olwen, come to me, I implore,
tell me, where shall I find you?
Olwen, till the stars shine no more
true unto you I shall be.

Deep in the blue that veils the night,
the light in the west has faded,
but I must pursue till dawn breaks through,
the dream I am dreaming of you, beloved.
Olwen, it is your face I see
that wakens in ev'ry place for me
Music, of vanished ecstacy
that echoes into Eternity.
Olwen, in the wings of the wind
fondly your voice is falling,
calling from a world apart,
and strangely you seem
to answer the dream in my heart!
