A Maori Reveillee.
Lo! Dawn succeeds to gloomy night, And o'er earth riseth morning's light; The warbling birds salute the sun, It dawns—it dawns. The day 's begun. How dnrk the gloomy mist lianga o'er Yon mountain's summit drear and hoar, Aciosi which leads the devious way JJy which my lover strides away ; Oh turn tliee, turn tliec yet once more, Tlien forth, I'll freely fondly pour, Tears which now swell the throbbing eye • Indeed, —indeed—it was not I, Thou truly was the first to blame ; Thou didst mo before others shamo, Then perhaps I acted rather foolishly, But that arose from my great love to tliee.
