Oh, let Me sing to-night, mother,.
That song I used to sing,

As a bird .upon the Wing!

That warbled with the strain,
But let me sing to-night, mother, • . •
The dear old*gong again;
Y know 'twill bring sad thoughts, mother,.
Thy tears may taillike rain,,

Thou Ile'er may'st set again,
Ttut I'd have thee send each tear,-mother,
Back to its seeret cell, -
Aud let me sing to-night, mother, •
The song she loved so well,
And let me sing to-night, mother,
Therong she loved so well. • -
It will bring bright dreams to my heart, mother,
Bright dreams of the joyous past, . '

I know the light grows , mother, '
But still) fondly c • .
To the bright dreatni, hat come b , mother,
With the song I Oed to sin ' ' "
To the bright dreamt Lome back, mother,
With the song I-used to sing.
As' I sing that song of boy, mother,
Faith upward lifts his: eye, •
Towards the land of •rest, tnothr;
- Where, hope can never die. •
Where ties that strunOy bindi.mother,

Where tears are dried, and the hearts mother,
May never know sorrow again. . • .
Then let me sing to-night, mother, . ,• •

By her side, all silent and cold, -

Free from the bitter misery •
Of gos4's endless 'prattling.
Ti? mischief Makers that remove

And lead us d i ll to disapprove

Straight to your neighbor's house.they go,

And break the peace of high and ton,•

Oh! that the mischief-making crew
Were all reduced:to one: or two,
And they were l'inintet red or bhie,
That every One might know, thimil.
Then would our Villagers forget
To rage and quart 4 fume and fret,
And .fall into an angry pet,

For 'tis a sad, dt..4p-xOng part
To make another "bosom Smart,
And plant a. dagger in the heart
