“…the faithful beauty of the stars… “Sara Teasedale Winter Stars, 1920


Thank you Kara for introducing me to Sara Teasdale, and for your recitation of this moving poem. Thank you DJ Lang for your fine stems — I didn’t touch the arrangement.

I uploaded my vocal parts separately (here).


Winter Stars by Sara Teasdale (1920)

I went out at night alone;
The young blood flowing beyond the sea
Seemed to have drenched my spirit’s wings—
I bore my sorrow heavily.

But when I lifted up my head
From shadows shaken on the snow,
I saw Orion in the east
Burn steadily as long ago.

From windows in my father’s house,
Dreaming my dreams on winter nights,
I watched Orion as a girl
Above another city’s lights.

Years go, dreams go, and youth goes too,
The world’s heart breaks beneath its wars,
All things are changed, save in the east
The faithful beauty of the stars.
