And Death Shall Have No Dominion - Dylan Thomas

And death shall have no dominion

Deadman naked shall be one

With the man in the wind and the west moon;

When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone

My lifestyle got elbow and foot;

Though they go mad they shall be sane

Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again;

Though lovers be lost love shall not

And death shall have no dominion

And death shall have no dominion

Under the windings of the sea

They lying long shall not die windily;

Twisting on racks when sinews give way

Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break;

Faith in their hands shall snap in two

And the unicorn evils run them through;

Split all ends up, they shan’t crack;

And death shall have no dominion

And death shall have no dominion

And death shall have no dominion

No more may gulls cry at their ears

Or waves break loud on the seashores;

Where blew a flower may a flower no more

Lift its head to the blows of the rain;

Though they be mad and dead as nails

Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;

Break in the sun till the sun breaks down

And death shall have no dominion

And death shall have no dominion

And death shall have no dominion
