| Oh father tonight they say you are, | |
| To wed another bride, | |
| That you will hold her in your arms, | |
| Where my dear mother died. | |
| They say her name is | |
| Mary too, | |
| The name my mother bore, | |
| But Father is she kind and true, | |
| Like the one we loved before. | |
| And is her footstep soft and light, | |
| Her voice so meek and mild, | |
| And father do you think she'll love, | |
| Your blind and helpless child. | |
| Oh father do not bid me come, | |
| To welcome your newmade bride, | |
| I could not greet her in the room, | |
| Where my dear mother died. | |
| But when I've cried myself to sleep, | |
| As I so often do, | |
| Into my chamber you may creep, | |
| My new made mama and you. | |
| He turned away to leave the room, | |
| A joyful cry was given, | |
| He turned about and he knew at last, | |
| His blind child had gone to | |
| Heaven. They buried her by her mother's side, | |
| And erected a marble square, | |
| And there on the tomb these words do read, | |
| She'll not be blind up there. |
