The Parting Kiss

One kind kiss before we part,

Drop a tear, and bid adieu;

Tho' we sever, my fond heart

Till we meet shall pant for you.

Yet, yet weep not so, my love,

Let me kiss that falling tear;

Tho' my body must remove,

All my soul will still be here.

All my soul and all my heart,

And every wish shall pant for you;

One kind kiss then e'er we part,

Drop a tear, and bid adieu.
