»

You flew away

My sweet swallow,

Towards distant, dreary, disconsolate skies,

Before seeing the golden autumn,

You left with the heartless pain

Of the nestless swain

In your heart…

»

Someday, in May, yearning

May bring you back,

With the memory of an old place,

To find your nest,

Warm, enticing,

To feel many a dawn’s embrace…

»

The living sun

May smile again,

You may imbibe the cool of life’s fountain,

The moon may unveil

Its kiss of love, and

The white faces of stars may drop their own veil…

»

And you may soar

Fulfilled and free,

Basking – at home – in your dreams’ glow,

My sweet swallow,

My tender, tiny bird,

Nestless no more, never in sorrow…
