'I have no name;
I am but two days old.'
What shall I call thee?
'I happy am,
Joy is my name.'
Sweet joy befall thee!
Pretty joy!
Sweet joy, but two days old.
Sweet joy I call thee:
Thou dost smile,
I sing the while;
Sweet joy befall thee!
I am busy working to bring William Blake's "Infant Joy" 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 William Blake's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Infant Joy" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
