A Dirge

by Percy Bysshe Shelley · (no date)
Published 01/07/1880

Rough wind, that moanest loud

      Grief too sad for song;

Wild wind, when sullen cloud

      Knells all the night long;

Sad storm whose tears are vain,

Bare woods, whose branches strain,

Deep caves and dreary main,—

      Wail, for the world's wrong!
