Reconciliation
Language: English 
You and I went wand'ring by one day,
Watching the sunlight on the roses play;
An unkind word from me, from you a frown,
Then dark clouds gathered,-night crept down.

You and I! — a rift within the lute! —
Our Summer vanished,- our lips still mute!
Come let us say the needed word,"Forgive!"
That we may learn again to love and live!
