If Grief For Grief Can Touch Thee by Emily Jane Bronte

If grief for grief can touch thee,
If answering woe for woe,
If any truth can melt thee
Come to me now!


I cannot be more lonely,
More drear I cannot be!
My worn heart throbs so wildly
'Twill break for thee -


And when the world despises -
When heaven repels my prayer -
Will not mine angel comfort?
Mine idol hear?


Yes by the tears I poured,
By all my hours of pain
O I shall surely win thee
Beloved, again!
