The Bells - A collaboration

By Edgar Allan Poe

The bells! ah, the bells! The little silver bells! How fairy-like a melody there floats From their throats. From their merry little throats From the silver, tinkling throats Of the bells, bells, bells Of the bells! The bells! ah, the bells! The heavy iron bells! How horrible a monody there floats From their throats From their deep-toned throats From their melancholy throats! How I shudder at the notes Of the bells, bells, bells Of the bells!
