Songtext von Tyger

Tyger, tyger, burning bright In the forests of the night What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? Tyger, tyger, burning bright In the forests of the night What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? In what distant deeps or skies Burnt the fire of thine eyes? On what wings dare he aspire? What the hand dare seize the fire? Tyger, tyger, burning bright In the forests of the night What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? And what shoulder, and what art Could twist the sinews of thy heart? And when thy heart began to beat What dread hand? And what dread feet? When the stars threw down their spears And watered heaven with their tears Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the lamb make thee? Tyger, tyger, burning bright In the forests of the night Tyger, tyger, burning bright In the forests of the night What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? What the hammer? What the chain? In what furnace was thy brain? What the anvil? What dread grasp Dare its deadly terrors clasp? When the stars threw down their spears And watered heaven with their tears Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the lamb make thee? Tyger, tyger, burning bright In the forests of the night
