lirik lagu ghizela rowe - written in london on the 19th march 1796 by matilda betham
a lov’d companion, chosen friend
does at this hour depart
whom the dear name of father binds
still closer to my heart
on him may joy~dispensing heav’n
each calm delight bestow
and eas’d of peace~destroying care
his life serenely flow!
did i but know his bosom calm
and free from anxious fear
around me in more cheerful hues
would every scene appear
and i will hope that he, who ne’er
repin’d at heav’n’s decree
but ever patient and resign’d
submissive bent the knee:
who, best of fathers, never sought
for arbitrary sway
but free within each youthful mind
bade reason lead the way
who taught us, ‘stead of servile fear
a warm esteem to prove
and bade each act of duty spring
from gratitude and love
yes, i must hope that generous mind
with many cares opprest
shall in the winter of his days
with sweet repose be blest
