4. There Will Come Soft Rains  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: English 
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 awoke at dawn,
Would scarcely know that we were gone.

Text Authorship:

  • by Sara Teasdale (1884 - 1933), "There Will Come Soft Rains", subtitle: "(War Time)", appears in Flame and Shadow, first published 1920
