Bright Be Thy Dreams

________________________________________________
Title:     Bright Be Thy Dreams
Author: Thomas Moore [More Titles by Moore]

(WELSH AIR.)


Bright be thy dreams--may all thy weeping
Turn into smiles while thou art sleeping.
May those by death or seas removed,
The friends, who in thy springtime knew thee,
All thou hast ever prized or loved,
In dreams come smiling to thee!

There may the child, whose love lay deepest,
Dearest of all, come while thou sleepest;
Still as she was--no charm forgot--
No lustre lost that life had given;
Or, if changed, but changed to what
Thou'lt find her yet in Heaven!





[The end]
Thomas Moore's poem: Bright Be Thy Dreams
