TO MOTHER.

I've wandered far from thee, mother,
For from my happy home,
I've left the land that gave me birth,
In other chimes to roam;
And time since then has roll'd its years
And marked them on my brow,
Yet have often thought of thee
Tn thinking of thee now.
I'm thinking of the day, mother,
When at thy tender side
You watched the dawning of my youth
And kissed me in your pride.
Then brightly was my heart Lit up
With hopes of future JOY,
While your bright fancy honors wove
To deck thy darling boy.
I'm thinking of the day, mother.
When with such anxious care,
You lifted up your heart to heaven
Your hope, your pride was there.
Fond mem'ry brings thy parting words,
While tears stole down your cheek;
Thy long, last, loving look spoke more
Then ever words could speak.
I'm far away from thee mother,
No friend is near me now,
To soothe me with tender word
Or cool my burning brow;
The dearest ties affection wove,
Are all now torn from me,
They left me when the trouble came,
They did not love like thee.
I'm lonely and forsaken now,
Unpitied and unblest,
And still would not have thee know
How eorely I'm distressed.
I know you would not chide, mother,
You would not give me blame,
But soothe me with your tender words,
And bid me hope again.
I would not have thee know, mother,
How brightest hopes decay,
The tempter with his baneful cup
Has dashed them all away;
And shame has left its venom sting,
To rack with anguish wild
And still would not have thee know
The sorrow Of thy child.
Oh! I have wandered far, mother
Since i deserted thee,
And left thy trusting heart to break,
Beyond the deep blue sea;
Obi mother, still love thee we'll,
And long to hear thee speak,
And feel again thy balmy breath
Upon my careworn cheek.
But ali! there is thought, mother,
parvad,s INV heating breast
That thy freed spirit may have flown
To its eternal rest:
And while wipe the tear away,
Come whispers On the air
A voice that speaks of Heaven and thee
Aud bids me seek thee there.
