There Will Come Soft Rains
Written by Seth Mountain
Performed by Dan D. Dirges

There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

And frogs in the pools singing at night,
And wild plum trees in tremulous white,

Robins will wear their feathery fire
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;

And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree
If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
Would scarcely know that we were gone.

(lyrics as I sang it)

There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground, And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound; Would scarcely know that we were gone.
Would scarcely know that we were gone.
And frogs in the pools singing at night,
And wild plum trees in tremulous white,

There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

Robins will wear their feathery fire
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;

And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree
If mankind perished utterly;
If mankind perished utterly;

There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
Would scarcely know that we were gone.
Would scarcely know that we were gone.
