letra de a smile and a tear - harriet abrams
you own i’m complacent, but tell me i’m cold
then must i my youth’s early sorrows unfold
must waken remembrance to joys that are fled
now hope is extinguished and passion is dead
i have lost in life’s morn all that life could endear
and if i seem cheerful, i smile thro’ a tear
my parents, tho’ humble, were happy and good
we could boast of our honour, if not of our blood;
my lover, ah! how the sad tale shall i tell
for his country he fought – for his country he fell
he was brave, he was true, to my soul he was dear
his fame claims a smile, but it shinеs tro’ a tear
in vain would i picture my agonized hеart
my parents’ soft soothings no balm could impart;
they sunk o’er the child whom they could not relieve
and the cold hand of death left me only to grieve
thus fated to suffer, that moment draws near
when you’ll neither distinguish a smile nor a tear
