The brook meandered its way along While I stood upon its bank; The partridge whistled his autumn song, And the cattle came and drank. The leaves of autumn were falling near, Floating idly down the stream; The fields and forests were lone and sere, When I slept and dreamed a dream.
I dreamed I rambled the meadows o'er With a heart all gay and light; The light of eyes that I'll see no more Made both wood and field more bright. The rippling laugh that my darling had Was so very sweet to me, I soon... forgot I was lone and sad; I was fill'd with mirth and glee.
A bird was singing his autumn song But his notes were lost to me, For I was happy the whole day long; I was loved, and love was free; We talked of seraphs and golden wings, While we watched the rippling tide; We could hear the harp with its silver strings Play the air for groom and bride.
I stooped to steal from her tender lips One kiss as a gift that day! I woke to find that the joys man sips Will forever fly away. I'd slept and dreamed on the brook's low bank And my darling whom I'd found, With whom the nectar of gods I'd drank Was asleep beneath a mound IDLE SONGS OF AN IDLE SOLDIER 41 Close by the brook 'neath a chestnut tree Where the autumn birds flew near And sang their songs full of simple glee; Ah, the songsters did not care!
