American Old Time Song Lyrics: 39 I Have No Mother Now

Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 39

I HAVE NO MOTHER NOW.

The midnight stars are gleaming upon her silent grave;
Now sleepeth without dreaming the friend we could not save.
The cloud of grief is heaping its shadow on my brow;
Oh! blame me not for weeping-I have no mother now.
The cloud of grief is heaping its shadow on my brow;
Oh: blame me not for weeping -I have no mother now.

Yet not alone she lieth, one angel child is there;
No more for him she sigheth, for death hath joined the pair,
Together sweetly sleeping beneath the locust bough;
oh! blame me not for weeping-I have no mother now.
Together sweetly sleeping beneath the locust bough;
Oh! blame me not for weeping-I have no mother now.;

No mother now to bless me with love sincere and true;
No mother to caress me, as she was wont to do;
No mother's grief is keeping its shadow on my brow;
Oh! blame me not for weeping-I have no mother now.
No mother's grief is keeping its shadow on my brow;
Oh! blame me not for weeping-I have no mother now.
