Why, Why Repine?

Author: Walter S. Landor, 1775-1864 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8806 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Why, why repine, my pensive friend Lyrics: 1 Why, why repine, my pensive friend, At pleasures slipped away? Some will the stern fates never lend, And all refuse to stay. 2 I see the rainbow in the sky, The dew upon the grass, I see them, and I ask not why They glimmer or they pass. 3 With folded arms I linger not To call them back; ’twere vain; In this, or in some other spot, I know they’ll shine again.
