A setting of John Donne's beautiful poem that I composed for the wedding of my sister and brother-in-law, Rosie and Jamie. Recorded with a group of lovely and very talented friends in York on 15th December, 2016.
The Good-Morrow by John Donne:
I wonder by my troth, what thou and I
Did, till we lov'd? Were we not wean'd till then?
But suck'd on countrey pleasures, childishly?
Or snorted we in the Seaven Sleepers’ den?
’Twas so; but this, all pleasures fancies bee.
If ever any beauty I did see,
Which I desir'd, and got, ’twas but a dreame of thee.
And now good morrow to our waking soules,
Which watch not one another out of feare;
For love, all love of other sights controules,
And makes one little roome an everywhere.
Let sea-discoverers to new worlds have gone,
Let Maps to other, worlds on worlds have showne,
Let us possesse one world, each hath one, and is one.
My face in thine eye, thine in mine appeares,
And true plain hearts doe in the faces rest;
Where can we finde two better hemispheares
Without sharpe North, without declining West?
Whatever dies, was not mix'd equally;
If our two loves be one, or, thou and I
Love so alike, that none can slacken, none can die.
