Little lamb, who made thee?
Tiger, tiger, burning bright
Does thou know who made thee,
the forests of the night,
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed
What immortal hand or eye
By the stream and o'er
mead:
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps skies
Softest clothing, woolly, bright;
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What
Little lamb, who made thee?
hand dare seize the fire?
Does thou know who made thee?
And what shoulder and what ort
Little lamb, I'll tell thee;
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
Little lamb, I'll tell thee:
And, when thy heart began to beat,
He is called by thy name,
What dread hand and what dread feet?
For He calls Himself a Lamb.
What the hammer? what the chain?
He is meek, and He is mild,
In what furnace was thy brain?
He became a little child.
What the anvil? what dread grasp
I a child, and thou a lamb,
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
We are called by His name.
When the stars threw down their spears,
Little lamb, God bless thee!
And watered heaven with their tears,
Little lamb, God bless thee!
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?
Tiger, tiger, burning bright
the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry.
