ON A BIRTHDAY CARD.
A birthday offering,
A little one I bring;
Yet do not it despise,
For it hath come from far,
From one whose pathway lies
Beneath the southern star.
A little one I bring;
Yet do not it despise,
For it hath come from far,
From one whose pathway lies
Beneath the southern star.
It comes to tell you this,
That, though too far apart
For lip and lip to kiss,
Yet heart can cling to heart;
And therefore do I bring
This little offering.
That, though too far apart
For lip and lip to kiss,
Yet heart can cling to heart;
And therefore do I bring
This little offering.
