When the twilight lalls and the soft stars gleam, The good ship Sleep sails in to rest On the calm, sweet pillow of Moth er's breast; In'o the harbor cf Pillowport, The white-sailed vessel glides Soft and still, to the airs that fill The voice of the murmuring tides! Oh, Master Love at the helm stands With the tiller grasped in his faith ful hands; The sirens sing on the waves, afloat, And the twilight falls o'er the silent boat; Into the harbor of Pillowport, j Safe from the seas of day, The good ship soars to the golden shores Of the city of Tired-of-Play! Around and around the isles of bloom She rides the storm and cleaves the spun; Ail safe, all safe each soul on board In the tender care of the gentle ' Lord; Into the harbor Pillowport. Dusk and the darkling dome, With love's all-hail o'er the vel sel's rail From the sweetheart lips of home! The wind blows east, the wind blows west, 'Tis twilight time oi mothers breast; Ahoy, ahoy, good ship, ahoy, With the golden girl and golden boy; Into the harbor of Pillowport, Sweet ship of the silver streams, Let anchors fail by the velvet mall Of this beautiful city of dreams!
