The gift of life so quick undone --
Hard the news, worse the shock,
That burn'd my mirth hard as rock;
Yet never will I forget this one.
He came as quick as he went
And filled our hearts with bubbling joy --
Not enough time to know if boy,
Yet still we know from Heaven sent.
I live in hope, the day to come --
The promise of the season tell --
With joy, his cry a happy bell,
And I will hold in arm my son.
