In the dooryard fronting an old farm-house near the whitewash'd palings,
Stand the lilac-bush, tall-growing with heart-shaped leaves of rich green,
With many a pointed blossom rising delicate, with the perfume strong I love
With every leaf a miracle -- and from this bush in the dooryard,
With delicate -- color'd blossom s and heart shaped leaves of rich green,
A spring with its flower I break.

Nor for you, for on alone,
Blossoms and branches green to coffins all I bring,
For fresh as the morning, thus would I chant a song for you O sane and sacred death.
All over bouquets of roses,
O death , I cover you over with roses and early lilies,
But mostly and now the lilac that blooms the first,
Copious I break, I break the springs from the bushes,
With loaded arms I come, pouring for you,
For you and the coffins of all of you O death.
