IF e'er for human bliss or woe	A
I feel the sympathetic glow	A
If e'er my heart has learn'd to know	A
The gen'rous wish or pray'r	B
Who sow'd the germ with tender hand	C
Who mark'd its infant leaves expand	C
My mother's fost'ring care	D
	-
And if one flow'r of charms refin'd	E
May grace the garden of my mind	E
'Twas she who nurs'd it there	D
She lov'd to cherish and adorn	F
Each blossom of the soil	G
To banish ev'ry weed and thorn	F
That oft oppos'd her toil	G
	-
And oh if e'er I've sigh'd to claim	H
The palm the living palm of fame	H
The glowing wreath of praise	I
If e'er I've wish'd the glitt'ring stores	J
That fortune on her fav'rite pours	J
'Twas but that wealth and fame if mine	K
Round thee with streaming rays might shine	K
And gild thy sun bright days	I
	-
Yet not that splendor pomp and pow'r	B
Might then irradiate ev'ry hour	L
For these my mother well I know	A
On thee no raptures could bestow	A
But could thy bounty warm and kind	E
Be like thy wishes unconfin'd	E
And fall as manna from the skies	M
And bid a train of blessings rise	M
Diffusing joy and peace	N
The tear drop grateful pure and bright	O
For thee would beam with softer light	O
	-
Than all the diamond's crystal rays	I
Than all the emerald's lucid blaze	I
And joys of heav'n would thrill thy heart	P
To bid one bosom grief depart	P
One tear one sorrow cease	N
	-
Then oh may heav'n that loves to bless	Q
Bestow the pow'r to cheer distress	Q
Make thee its minister below	A
To light the cloudy path of woe	A
To visit the deserted cell	R
Where indigence is doom'd to dwell	R
To raise when drooping to the earth	S
The blossoms of neglected worth	S
And round with lib'ral hand dispense	T
The sunshine of beneficence	U
	-
But ah if fate should still deny	V
Delights like these too rich and high	V
	-
If grief and pain thy steps assail	W
In life's remote and wintry vale	W
Then as the wild Eolian lyre	X
Complains with soft entrancing number	L
When the loud storm awakes the wire	L
And bids enchantment cease to slumber	L
So filial love with soothing voice	Y
E'en then shall teach thee to rejoice	Y
E'en then shall sweeter milder sound	Z
When sorrow's tempest raves around	Z
While dark misfortune's gales destroy	A2
The frail mimosa buds of hope and joy	A2
