A Parting Sigh

 When I am free

Where'er I do fly

I am beneath so far,

Mine soul does cry.


All is lost

Joy ephemeral

O gone is my bliss

With sorrow I do kiss

Your timorous being.


Disgorge my overflowing heart

As such can I never salvage

My efflorescent mind.


But then my blissful soul you prove

Pleasures and pain you move.


O pity me

If by constant tenderness

Ah! Cruel evening breeze

Which made me freeze!


Sorrow is my friend

Sleeping there at my end

Never wanting for a parting sigh

I fall and softly die.
