ST. PANCRAS INTERNATIONAL

 

ST. PANCRAS INTERNATIONAL

While the pianos melody

Flows in the passengers river

Of the Victorian station,

I leave as another foreign,

The building,

I leave as another leaflet,

The sapling,

When the rain begins to moisten,

The streets of the gallant city,

Which she has shown me the kindness

Of the lion,

How valiant is her empress.

I let her light to guide me

Through the valleys, the hills, the streams,

Through her green and perfumed grass

To the end of her country,

To see, in the top of a cliff,

The train submerging in the sea,

Forsaking the vapour behind itself,

Waiting for the wants in France.
