ALL DAY I HEAR THE NOISE OF WATERS All day I hear the noise of waters Making moan, Sad as the sea-bird is, when going Forth alone, He hears the winds cry to the waters' Monotone. The gray winds, the cold winds are blowing Where I go. I hear the noise of many waters Far below. All day, all night, I hear them flowing To and fro. -- James Joyce (1882-1941) > >
