English poem
Enter AUBERY
by James Miller (1860–1947)
Aubery (sings.)
Farewell! farewell! sweet day, adieu! The sun that’s fading fast to view, And sinks so lone in Arran’s wave, Will rise to gild the patriot’s grave.
Yes! fare-thee-well! sweet day, farewell! The evening chimes so softly swell: Those silver chimes the patriot hears Will be the last he lists in tears.
