OgEy the easement wide
hear clear, sweet song!
Isit the streamlets gushing tide
Swept through the glen along
Li. the lark through the morning sSy
Soaring with dew-bHght wing
Or the breeze, with its plaintivs sign
TcucAins the air-harp's string
Nav. III, a dark-eyed maid,
who sings in a tongue unknewn;
Grief on her fair young brow is laid,
And gief thrills every tons.
Beautiful stranger. dost thou sing
Songs Of thy Fsther.land7
OF the sunny dell, OF the woodland spring,
OF the perished household band
She hears not, bu, her hand
Der her bosom folds the scarf.
For from the crowd that near her stand
She hears the jesting laugh.
Like a dropping flower she turns
Away from their rude mirh,
And o'er her cheeks the hot blush burns,
And bitter tears gush forth
She .peaks-;he same strange tongue!
Silyery, soft and low;
The accents from her heart seem wrung,
O'erfraught with grief and woe
Her tale upon our untaught ears
Falls like the song Of birds;
Obi is there not one heart that hears,
Can understand her words 7
Lo! glide,h through the crowd
A fairer maid than she
Her eye is bright, her glance is proud,
And man might bow the knee
To one 80 nobly born and bred
SO nobly bright and fair,
As now raised high her regal head,
Radiant with golden hair!
She waved her hand the crowd
Fell back, like foes disarmed;
Yet stood and gazed, with foreheads bowed,
Like evil spirits charmed.
"Oh who would bruise a broken reed,
Who wouRd an orphan maid
Her parents, on the cold sea-weed.
Beneath the waves are laid
"From their own land exiled
For struggling TO be free,
They sought refuge for their child
Across ,he broad blue sea.
The chip went down with all its crew
Save one-who, with brave hand,
This maiden from the waters drew,
But perlshed on the strand.
"Poor flower! with thy sweet face,
And with thy maiden years.
And with thy silent. winning grace,
And speech that no one hears
Oh! who can know through what dread snares
Thy feet till now have trod
Saved only by thine earnest prayers
And holy trust in God
Henceforth thy songs shall flow
AS freely as the breeze
Thy young heart like a rose shall grow
Beneath my native trees
I'll talk to thee in thy sweet tongue,
And teach thee all my own;
Thy last unhappy song is sung =
Sing now in joyous tone %
