Grantchester Meadows Lyrics – Pink Floyd – Ummagumma

Home / Pink Floyd Lyrics / Ummagumma Lyrics / Grantchester Meadows Lyrics Grantchester Meadows (Waters) 7:28 “Icy wind of night be gone this is not your domain”In the sky a bird was heard to cry.Misty morning whisperings and gentle stirring soundsBelied the deathly silence that lay all around. Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog foxGone to ground.See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water.And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the treesLaughing as it passes through the endless summerMaking for the sea. In the lazy water meadow I lay me down.All around me golden sun flakes settle on the ground.Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoonBringing sounds of yesterday into this city room. Hear the lark harken to the barking of the dark foxGone to ground.See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water.And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the...

It appears on the band’s fourth studio album, “Ummagumma,” released in 1969. This composition is divided into several parts and reflects a classical influence melded with avant-garde experimentation, which was a significant departure from the mainstream music of the era. In “Sysyphus,” Pink Floyd takes us on an experimental journey inspired by the Greek myth of Sisyphus, a figure condemned to an eternity of rolling a boulder uphill only for it to roll down each time it neared the summit. Much like its namesake’s endless toil, the...
