My ornaments are arms, My pastime is in war, My bed is cold upon the wold, My lamp yon star. My journeyings are long, My slumbers short and broken; From hill to hill I wander still, Kissing thy token. I ride from land to land, I sail from sea to sea; Some day more kind I fate may find, Some night, kiss thee. John Gibson Lockhart [1794-1854] |
