James Weldon Johnson Quote

Whose starward eye
Saw chariot swing low? And who was he
That breathed that comforting, melodic sigh,
Nobody knows de trouble I see?


O Black and Unknown Bards, st. 2. - Fifty Years and Other Poems (1917)


Whose starward eye Saw chariot swing low? And who was he That breathed that comforting, melodic sigh, Nobody knows de trouble I see?

Whose starward eye Saw chariot swing low? And who was he That breathed that comforting, melodic sigh, Nobody knows de trouble I see?

Whose starward eye Saw chariot swing low? And who was he That breathed that comforting, melodic sigh, Nobody knows de trouble I see?

Whose starward eye Saw chariot swing low? And who was he That breathed that comforting, melodic sigh, Nobody knows de trouble I see?
