‘WHERE TRUE JOYS ARE TO BE FOUND’
Time was I yearned for happiness,
Time was I burned for fame,
Nor marked the Love and loveliness
Unsought, unbought that came:
Time was I burned for fame,
Nor marked the Love and loveliness
Unsought, unbought that came:
Now happiness seems emptiness,
And fame a fickle breath,
And only Love and loveliness
Have promise over Death.
And fame a fickle breath,
And only Love and loveliness
Have promise over Death.
