Fyodor Tyutchev's Poem: The Melodious Voice of the Sea 🌊

How tuneful is the voice of sea, <br />What true accord in ocean's murmur, <br />And in the reed's light, rhythmic tremour <br />What tender musicality! <br /> <br />In nature all is harmony, <br />A consonance fore'er agreed on, <br />And 'tis alone our phantom freedom <br />That is disturbingly off-key. <br /> <br />Whence comes this breach? How to explain <br />Why with the sea its song sonorous <br />The soul declines to sing in chorus? <br />Why does the thinking reed complain?<br /><br />Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/how-tuneful-is-the-voice-of-sea/
