Title: We Part For Ever
Author: George Pope Morris [ More Titles by Morris]
Fare thee well--we part for ever! All regrets are now in vain! Fate decrees that we must sever, Ne'er to meet on earth again. Other skies may bend above thee, Other hearts may seek thy shrine, But no other e'er will love thee With the constancy of mine. Yet farewell--we part for ever! All regrets are now in vain! Fate decrees that we must sever, Ne'er to meet on earth again. Fare thee well! Like the shadow on the dial Lingers still our parting kiss! Life has no severer trial, Death no pang to equal this. All the world is now before thee, Every clime to roam at will, But within the land that bore thee, One fond heart will love thee still. Yet farewell--we part for ever! All regrets are now in vain! Fate decrees that we must sever, Ne'er to meet on earth again. Fare thee well!
