George Gordon Byron - Farewell! If Ever Fondest PrayerGeorge Gordon Byron - Farewell! If Ever Fondest Prayer
Work rating: Low


Farewell! if ever fondest prayer   For other`s weal avail`d on high, Mine will not all be lost in air,   But waft thy name beyond the sky. Twere vain to speak, to weep, to sigh:   Oh! more than tears of blood can tell, When wrung from guilt`s expiring eye,   Are in that word--Farewell!--Farewell! These lips are mute, these eyes are dry;   But in my breast and in my brain, Awake the pangs that pass not by,   The thought that ne`er shall sleep again. My soul nor deigns nor dares complain   Though grief and passion there rebel; I only know we loved in vain--   I only feel--Farewell!--Farewell!
