a song - helen maria williams lyrics

Loading...

i

no riches from his scanty store
my lover could impart;
he gave a boon i valued more —
he gave me all his heart!

ii

his soul sincere, his generous worth
might well this bosom move;
and when i asked for bliss on earth
i only meant his love

iii

but now for me, in search of gain
from sh0r- to sh0r- he flies;
why wander riches to obtain
when love is all i prize?

iv

the frugal meal, the lowly cot
if blest my love with thee!
that simple fare, that humble lot
were more than wealth to me

v

while he the dangerous ocean braves
my tears but vainly flow:
is pity in the faithless waves
to which i pour my woe?

vi

the night is dark, the waters deep
yet soft the billows roll;
alas! at every breeze i weep —
the storm is in my soul
