George Gordon Byron - Oh! Weep For Those
Work rating: Medium

I.
Oh! Weep for those that wept by Babel`s stream, 
Whose shrines are desolate, whose land a dream, 
Weep for the harp of Judah`s broken shell--
Mourn--where their God that dwelt—the Godless dwell! 

II.
And where shall Israel lave her bleeding feet? 
And when shall Zion`s songs agains seem sweet? 
And Judah`s melody once more rejoice 
The hearts that leap`d before its heavenly voice? 

III.
Tribes of the wandering foot and weary breast! 
How shall ye flee away and be at rest! 
The wild-dove hath her nest--the fox his cave-- 
Mankind their Country--Israel but the grave.
