THOSE BLUE REMEMBERED HILLS

Alfred Edward Housman (1859 – 1936

THOSE BLUE REMEMBERED HILLS

 

Into my heart an air that kills

From yon far country blows:

What are those blue remembered hills,

What spires, what farms are those?

 

That is the Land of Lost Content,

I see it shining plain,

The happy highways where I went,

And cannot come again.
