What Am I After All by Walt Whitman Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 1855

What am I after all but a child, pleas'd with the sound of my own
        name? repeating it over and over;
I stand apart to hear—it never tires me.

To you your name also;
Did you think there was nothing but two or three pronunciations in
        the sound of your name?
