Misery

Misery, o misery, where art thou
When I need thee so much and how
To replace these smiles on sunshine days
And steal the heart of tender ways

Misery, o misery, where is thy sting
Where is the despair that you can bring
Seize the walks in fields of gold
And all the pleasure memories told

Misery, o misery, where hast thou been
Allowing splendours, love, be seen
Across the ocean, hands embraced
And never trust or hope misplaced

Misery, o misery, in thanks returned
To reason, as this dream is burned
