THE HARP.
George Borrow translation
From Goronwy Owen.
The harp to every one is dear Who hateth vice, and all things evil; Hail to its gentle voice so clear, Its gentle voice affrights the Devil!
The Devil can not the Minstrel quell— He by the Minstrel is confounded; From Saul was cast the spirit fell, When David’s harp melodious sounded.
