LIGHT OF HEART.
Light of heart am I,
Nothing more shall grieve me;
Wherefore should I sigh?
Sighing can't relieve me!
When the blight is shed
Tears cannot efface it;
When the bloom hath fled
Weeping can't replace it!
Light of heart am I,
Nothing more shall grieve me;
Wherefore should I sigh?
Sighing can't relieve me!
Nothing more shall grieve me;
Wherefore should I sigh?
Sighing can't relieve me!
When the blight is shed
Tears cannot efface it;
When the bloom hath fled
Weeping can't replace it!
Light of heart am I,
Nothing more shall grieve me;
Wherefore should I sigh?
Sighing can't relieve me!
Wherefore feel for those
Who feel not for others!—
Hearts that will be foes—
When they should be brothers!
Those we loved—are gone;
Who love us—we find not:
Let the world frown on
As it will—we mind not:
Light of heart am I,
Nothing more shall grieve me;
Wherefore should I sigh?
Sighing can't relieve me!
Who feel not for others!—
Hearts that will be foes—
When they should be brothers!
Those we loved—are gone;
Who love us—we find not:
Let the world frown on
As it will—we mind not:
Light of heart am I,
Nothing more shall grieve me;
Wherefore should I sigh?
Sighing can't relieve me!
