-
I went alone to the old familiar placeB
Where we often metC
When the twilight soften'd thy bright and radiant faceB
And the sun had setC
All things around seem'd whispering of the pastD
With thine image blentD
Even the changeful spray which the torrent castD
As it downward wentD
I stood and gazed with a sad and heavy eyeA
On the waterfallE
And with a shouting voice of agonyF
On thy name did callE
-
IIA
-
With a yearning hope from my wrung and aching heartD
I call'd on theeF
And the lonely echoes from the rocks aboveG
They answer'd meF
Glad and familiar as a household wordD
Was that cherish'd nameH
But in that grieving hour faintly heardD
'T was not the sameH
Solemn and sad with a distant knelling cryA
On my heart it fellI
'T was as if the word 'Welcome' had been answer'd byA
The word 'FAREWELL '-
