Annabel Lee - Edgar Allan Poe It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, By the name of Annabel Lee Than to love and be loved by me. That a maiden there lived whom you may know And this maiden she lived with no other thought I was a child and she was a child, But we loved with a love that was more than love- With a love that the wingéd seraphs in Heaven In this kingdom by the sea; I and my Annabel Lee- Coveted her and me. And this was the reason that, long ago, A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling So that her high-born kinsmen came To shut her up in a sepulchre, In this kingdom by the sea, My beautiful Annabel Lee And bore her away from me, In this kingdom by the sea. The angels, not half so happy in Heaver, Yes'--that was the reason (as all men know, That the wind came out of the cloud by night, Went envying her and me- In this kingdom by the sea) Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee. But our love it was stronger by far than the love Of those who were older than we_ Of many far wiser than we- Nor the demons down under the sea, Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:- And neither the angels in Heaven above, Can ever dissever my soul from the soul For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; Of the beautiful Annabel Lee: Of my darling-my darling my life and my bride, In her sepulchre there by the sea_ In her tomb by the sounding sea.
