fair daffodils by Benjamin Britten sung at a Nottingham choir course in 1977
Sung by us at a singing course in Nottingham in 1977
fair daffodils, we weep to see
You haste away so soon;
As yet the early-rising sun
Has not attain'd his noon.

fair daffodils, we weep to see
You haste away so soon;
As yet the early-rising sun
Has not attain'd his noon.
Stay, stay until the hasting day
Has run but to the evensong,
And, having pray'd together, we
Will go with you along.
We have short time to stay, as you,
We have as short a spring;
As quick a growth to meet decay,
As you, or anything.
We die, as your hours do, and dry away,
Like to the summer's rain,
Or as the pearls of morning's dew,
Ne'er to be found again. less

As a boy chorister I can remember singing Healey Willan's setting of "Rise up, my love", a true gem. The beautiful imagery of this text drew me to write my own setting.
Sincere thanks to Matthew Curtis (choraltracks.com) for recording "Rise up, my love, my fair one."
If you would like to obtain the sheet music for this song, please contact: info@leadingnote.com.
I would like to acknowledge the a cappella choir that I sing in, The Stairwell Carollers, and our director Pierre Massie, for their musical inspiration these past 26 years.
I would also like to thank my friends in our "Ad hoc Chorale" for testing out this piece in one of our informal workshops and offering valuable comments.
And with deepest appreciation to my brother Adam Rain and my friend Geneviève Lajoie for their invaluable support throughout my composing journey. less
