The Lover
Walter Savage Landor
1775 to 1864
Now thou art gone, tho’ not gone far,
It seems that there are worlds between us;
Shine here again, thou wandering star!
Earth’s planet! and return with Venus.
At times thou broughtest me thy light
When restless sleep had gone away;
At other times more blessed night
Stole over, and prolonged thy stay.
Walter Savage Landor's The Lover
I am busy working to bring Walter Savage Landor's "The Lover" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Walter Savage Landor's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "The Lover" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
