Lean Out The Window

Would you like to celebrate Saint Patrick's day by listening to James Joyce read one of his own poems?

LEAN OUT OF THE WINDOW

by: James Joyce (1882-1941)

LEAN out of the window,
Goldenhair,
I heard you singing
A merry air.

My book was closed;
I read no more,
Watching the fire dance
On the floor.

I have left my book,
I have left my room,
For I heard you singing
Through the gloom.

Singing and singing
A merry air,
Lean out of the window,
Goldenhair.
