áailing away with the wind abeam, And tho wide, wide aea before; Sailing away in a lover's dream To tho port of the goldbn shore, Idle hands ou the rudder bands, Hope in the sunrise fair, And bearts as light as the sea bird whits Afloat in tlie morniag air. Love, in the dawn of that faroff timo, Did you guess of the weary way? Dearest, when life seemed asummer rhyme, Could wo teil where we went astray? Sileot tears tbrough the coming years, Darkness for you and me, And doubt and dread of the wilds ahead Feil chili as we sailed a-soa. Sailing ashore with a waning wind On the glassof a dreaining tide, Leavjng the dark of tho deep behind Por the light of the other side, Loosen hands f rom the rudder bands I Ah, to the margin foam Comes breath of land o'er the golden sand. Oh, swoet is our wolcomo home!
