Say, wither art thou flying So swift on gleaming wing? Fly to my birthplace, TarsuB, Tho spot I lovo tho best; Beneath my father's roof-tree, 0 swftllow, build thy nest. There dwells afar my fa her, A mournful man and gray, Who for his only son's return Walts vainly, day by day. If thou shouldst chanco to see him, Greet him with love from mo; Bid J 'm sit down and mourn wltn tears His son's sad destiny. In science, but in loneliness, Tell him, my days are passed: My life Is only half a life, My tears are falling fast. To mo, amid bright daylight, The sun is dark at noon; To my poet eyes at midnight Sleep comes not, late or soon. Tell him that, like a beauteous flower Smlt by a cruel doom, Uprooted from my native soil, I wither ere my bloom. Fly on swift wing, dear swallow, Across tho quickening earth, And seek in fair Armenia Thj city of ray birth. K. K.
