The Curse
J.M. Synge
1871 to 1909
Lord, confound this surly sister,
Blight her brow with blotch and blister,
Cramp her larynx, lung, and liver,
In her guts a galling give her.
Let her live to earn her dinners
In Mountjoy with seedy sinners:
Lord, this judgment quickly bring,
And I'm Your servant, J. M. Synge.
J.M. Synge's The Curse
I am busy working to bring J.M. Synge's "The Curse" 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 J.M. Synge's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "The Curse" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
