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!
