Nat King Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally as Nat King Cole, was a musician who first came to prominence as a leading jazz pianist. He owes most of his popular musical fame to his soft baritone voice, which he used to perform in big band and jazz genres. He was one of the first black Americans to host a television variety show, and has maintained worldwide popularity since his death. more »

Come, oh, songs! come, oh, dreams! 
Soft the gates of day close, 
Sleep, my birds, sleep, streams! 
Sleep, my wild rose! 

Pool and bud, hill and deep, 
You who wore my robes, sleep! 
Droop, East! die, West! 
Let my land rest. 

Woods, I woke your boughs! 
Hills, I woke your elf-throngs! 
Land, All thy hopes and woes 
Rang from me in songs! 

Come, oh, songs! come, oh,dreams!
In our house is deep rest, 
Through the pines gleams, gleams, 
Bright the gold West, 

There the flutes shall cry, 
There the viols weep, 
Laugh, my dreams, and sigh! 
Sing, and vigil keep, 
Awake, wild rose.
