PARTING SONG.
BYTS* 49,
Come let us part with lightsome heart,
Nor breathe one chiding sigh,
To think that wings of rainbow plume.
So soon would learn to hy.
We scarcely like the chimes to strike,
That tell Of pleasures flight,
But friendships chain when severed thus,
Is sure to reunite.
Then why not we as merry be,
Though this song be the last,
Believing other hours will come,
AS bright as those just paste
The wild BIRDS song is loud and long,
But the sweetest and the best
Is whistled as he leaves the bough.
To seek his lonely nest.
The SUMS rich ray shines through the day
But flashes deeper still,
While darling forth his farewell ray,
Behind the western hill
Then why not we as merry be,
In this our parting strain ?
For like the bird and sun, we'll come,
With JOY and warmth again;
The moments fed like violets dead,
Shall never lose their power,
For grateful perfume ever marks
The mornings withered flower.
The sailors lay in peaceful bay,
With gladstone mirth rings out.
But when the heavy anchors weighed,
He gives as blthe shout.
Then why not we as merry be,
In this our parting strain 2
And mark as gallant SAILORS do,
To make the port again.
