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. 'Lean out of the window' is reprinted from Chamber Music. James Joyce. London: Elkin Mathews, 1907.
