Stanzas For Music.
18th Century William Lisle Bowles EnglishSTANZAS FOR MUSIC.
I trust the happy hour will come, That shall to peace thy breast restore; And that we two, beloved friend, Shall one day meet to part no more.
It grieves me most, that parting thus, All my soul feels I dare not speak; And when I turn me from thy sight, The tears in silence wet my cheek.
Yet I look forward to the time, That shall each wound of sorrow heal; When I may press thee to my heart, And tell thee all that now I feel.
