THOMAS MOORE.
Shine soft, We trembling tears of light
That strew the mourning Skies
flushed in the silent dews of night
The harp of Erin lies.
What though her thousand years have past,
Of poets, saints and kings
Her echoes only hear the last
That swept those golden strings.
Fling DER his mound, We star-lit bowers,
The balmest wreaths ye wear,
: Whose breath has lent your earth-born flowers
Heavens own ambrosial air.
Breathe, bird of night thy softest tone,
By shadowy grove and rill
Thy song well soothe us while we own
That his sweeter still.
Stay, plying Time, thy foot for him,
Who gave thee swifter wings,
Nor let thine envious shadow dim
The light his glory filings.
If in his cheek unholy blood
Burned for one youthful hour,
Twas but the flushing of the bud
That blooms milk-white flower.
Take him, kind mother, to thy breast,
Who loved thy smiles SO well,
And spread thy mantle Ger his rest
Of rose and asphodel.
The bark has sailed the midnight sea,
The sea without shore,
That waved its parting sign to thee
"A health to thee, Tom Moore"
And thine, long lingering on the strand
Its bright-hued steamers furled,
Was tossed by age with trembling hand,
To seek silent world.
Not silent no, the radiant stars
Still lingering as they shine,
Unheard through earth's imprisoning bars,
Have voices sweet as thine
Wake then, in happier realms above,
The songs of bygone years,
Till angels learn these airs of love
That ravished mortal ears
