The meditation of the old fisherman — a poem by William Butler Yeats (subtitled)
____________________

You waves, - though you dance by my feet - like children at play,
Though you glow and you glance, - though you purr and you dart;
In the Junes - that were warmer than these are, - the waves were more gay,
When I was a boy - with never a crack in my heart.

The herring are not in the tides - as they were of old;
My sorrow! - for many a creak gave the creel - in the-cart
That carried the take - to Sligo town - to be sold,
When I was a boy - with never a crack in my heart.

And ah, - you proud maiden, - you are not so fair when his oar
Is heard on the water, - as they were, - the proud and apart,
Who paced - in the eve by the nets - on the pebbly shore,
When I was a boy - with never a crack in my heart.
