36 AN IRISH MOTHER'S LULLABY My dearie ! my wee thing ! the world is all a-cold, The sullen Winter's piping is shrill across the wold, No bloom is in the garden, no leaf upon the tree, But in your eyes, my bright one, the Summer stays with me.
Macushla ! my birdling ! the lilting song is still, That used to wake the morning upon the rosy hill, The hunger and the silence lie heavy upon men, But in your voice, my starling, the dawning sings again.
My heart's love ! mine own one ! the night is dar...k and drear, The lowness should be on me, the sorrow and the fear; But God forgive my daring ! I'm laughing night and day, With you upon my bosom, my little breath of May!
37 KATHLEEN Shall we deem the Springtime dead, Now that Kathleen's smile hath fled? Or the blessed Easter skies Dimmed for loss of her clear eyes? Shall we, for her early blight, Turn from Life and Life's delight, And with sullen, vain regret Ask of God that we forget?
Nay, sweet spirit ! Brave and pure, Strong to dare and to endure, Such is not thy soul's behest To the hearts that loved thee best; Still more close our eyes are drawn To the promise of the dawn, And for ever joy shall be Sweeter, for the thought of thee !
