The Broken Wing/If You Call Me

​5. If You Call Me

If you call me I will come  Swifter, O my Love,Than a trembling forest deer  Or a panting dove,Swifter than a snake that flies  To the charmer's thrall . . .If you call me I will come  Fearless what befall.
If you call me, I will come  Swifter than desire,Swifter than the lightning's feet  Shod with plumes of fire.Life's dark tides may roll between,  Or Death's deep chasms divide—If you call me I will come  Fearless what betide.
