SONG

Lightly we met in the morn, Lightly we parted at eve. There was never a thought of the thorn The rose of a day might leave.

Fate's finger we did not perceive, So lightly we met in the morn! So lightly we parted at eve We knew not that Love was born.

I rose on the morrow forlorn, To pine and remember and grieve. Too lightly we met in the morn! Too lightly we parted at eve!
