The Rose Family - Song II
O lesson well and wisely taughtStay with me to the last,That all my life may better beFor the trial that is past.O vanity, mislead no more!Sleep, like passions, long!Wake, happy heart, and dance againTo the music of my song!
O summer days, flit fast away,And bring the blithesome hourWhen we three wanderers shall meetSafe in our household flower!O dear mamma, lament no more!Smile on us as we come,Your grief has been our punishment,Your love has led us home.
