    Lyrics
    flow my teares
    john dowland, 1563-1626

    flow my teares, fall from your springs
    exilde forever, let me mourne
    where night’s black bird, hir
    sad infamy sings, there let mee live forlorne.

    downe vaine nights, shine you no more no nights are dark enough for those
    that in despaire, their lost fortuns deplore
    light doth but shame disclose.

    never may my woes be relieved,
    since pitie is fled,
    and tears, and sighes, and grones
    my wearie days,
    of all joyes have deprived

    from the highest spire of contentment,
    my fortune is throwne,
    and feare, and griefe, and paine
    for my deserts,
    are my hopes since hope is gone.

    harke you shadows that in darkness dwell
    learn to contemne light.
    happie, happie they that in hell
    feele not the world’s despite.
