Poor Wandr'ing One! Lyrics

Gilbert & Sullivan Poor Wandr'ing One!

[MABEL]
Poor wand'ring one!
Though thou hast surely strayed
Take heart of grace
Thy steps retrace
Poor wand'ring one!
Poor wand'ring one!
If such poor love as mine
Can help thee find
True peace of mind-
Why, take it, it is thine!

[GIRLS]
Take heart, no danger low'rs;
Take any heart but ours!

[MABEL]
Take heart, fair days will shine;
Take any heart -- take mine!

[GIRLS]
Take heart; no danger low'rs;
Take any heart -- but ours!

[MABEL]
Take heart, fair days will shine;
Take any heart -- take mine!
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Poor wand'ring one!
Though thou hast surely strayed
Take heart of grace
Thy steps retrace [MABEL]
Poor wand'ring one!
Ah, ah! Ah, ah, ah!
Ah, ah! Ah, ah, ah!
Fair days will shine
Take heart!
Take mine!
Take heart!
Take mine!
 
Ah! Ah!
Ah!
Take heart. [GIRLS]
Poor wand'ring one!
Poor wand'ring one!
 
Take heart,
Take heart!
Take any heart
But ours! Take heart! Take heart!
Take heart, no danger lowers!
Take any heart, but ours!
Take heart, take heart,
Take any heart but ours,
Take heart.
