Ah, the moon, which rose to the sky
is not the same that saw you
Unfathomable Night! how dost thou sweep Over the flooded earth, and darkly hide
Goodbye! the tears are in my eyes;
Farewell, farewell, my prettiest;
Years have trailed past like clouds over a country,
And they'll never return, for they're gone forever,
Yielding clod lulls iron off to sleep
bloods clot the patches where they oozed
A WAIL was heard around the bed, the death-bed of the young, Amidst her tears the Funeral Chant a mournful mother sung.
The womb
Rattles its pod, the moon
The Plains lay bare on the homeward route,
And the march was heavy on man and brute;
Alone I set out on the road; The flinty path is sparkling in the mist;
More than a hundred years ago
They raised for her this little stone;
Alone! Alone! No beacon, far or near!
No chart, no compass, and no anchor stay!
Still farther would I fly, my child,
To make thee safer yet,
Las campanas, el sol, el cielo claro
me llenan de tristeza, y en los ojos
My pony and I go to Songdo,
where Koryo reigned five hundred years.
I stood at eve, as the sun went down, by a grave where a woman lies,
Who lured men's souls to the shores of sin with the light of h
As I went down by Hastings Mill I lingered in my going
To smell the smell of piled-up deals and feel the salt wind blowing,
O little mouse, why dost thou cry
While merry stars laugh in the sky?
The girl smiled and said: What
is the secret of this gold ring,
All day they loitered by the resting ships,
Telling their beauties over, taking stock;
My great lord
Gave a dread command:
The mountain road goes up and down
From Gundagai to Tumut Town.
Old man Time, 'e's wrote his log up in the wrinkles on my brow,
And there ain't that much about me as a girl 'ud take to now;
Do you remember once, in Paris of glad faces,
The night we wandered off under the third moon's rays
How quiet
It is in this sick room
Mourn, O you Loves and Cupids and such of you as love beauty:
Still flowed the music, flowed the wine.
The youth in silence went;
Mournful groans, as when a tempest lowers,
It is clear that life is good
And happiness, the only indescribable emotion
He whom I enclose with my name is weeping in this dungeon.
I am ever busy building this wall all around; and as this wall goes up into
Death, rock me asleep,
Bring me to quiet rest,
