SONG.
Thou art gone, and the brilliant light that shone
In the track of thy way is fled;
And thou leav'st the heart that loved thee alone,
Silent, and cold, and dead!
In the track of thy way is fled;
And thou leav'st the heart that loved thee alone,
Silent, and cold, and dead!
When thy smile arose, like the morning's beam,
All the world seem'd good and bright;
But 'tis past like the lovely forms of a dream,
And I wake to the gloom of night.
All the world seem'd good and bright;
But 'tis past like the lovely forms of a dream,
And I wake to the gloom of night.
