The Ashgrove |
The ash grove how graceful how plainly it’s speaking |
The harp wind through it playing has language for me Whenever the light through its branches is breaking |
A host of kind faces is gazing on me The friends of my childhood again are before me Each step wakes a memory as freely I roam |
With soft whispers laden its leaves rustle o’er me The ash grove the ash grove again alone is my home |
Down yonder green valley where streamlets meander |
When twilight is fading I pensively rove |
Or at the bright noontide in solitude wander |
Amid the dark shades of the lonely ash grove |
Twas there while the blackbird was cheerfully singing |
I first met that dear one the joy of my heart |
Around us for gladness the bluebells were springing |
The ash grove the ash grove that sheltered my home |
My laughter is over my step loses lightness |
Old countryside measures steal soft on my ears; |
I only remember the past and its brightness |
The dear ones I mourn for again gather here |
From out of the shadows their loving looks greet me And wistfully searching the leafy green dome |
I find other faces fond bending to greet me The ash grove the ash grove alone is my home |
