Jani Christou: ''Six T.S.Eliot songs'' (1955), No IV. ''Eyes that last I saw in tears''.

Mezzo - soprano: Ioanna Vrakatseli (Athens) Piano: Christos Marinos (New York) T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) Jani Christou (1926-1970) Eyes that last I saw in tears Through division Here in death's dream kingdom The golden vision reappears I see the eyes but not the tears This is my affliction Eyes I shall not see again Eyes of decision Eyes I Shall not see unless At the door of death's other kingdom Where, as in this The eyes outlast, the tears And hold us in derision.
