Won't you help support DayPoems? ComradesBy Richard Hovey1869-1900Comrades, pour the wine to-night For the parting is with dawn! Oh, the clink of cups together, With the daylight coming on! Greet the morn With a double horn, When strong men drink together! Comrades, gird your swords to-night, For the battle is with dawn! Oh, the clash of shields together, With the triumph coming on! Greet the foe, And lay him low, When strong men fight together! Comrades, watch the tides to-night, For the sailing is with dawn! Oh, to face the spray together, With the tempest coming on! Greet the sea With a shout of glee, When strong men roam together! Comrades, give a cheer to-night, For the dying is with dawn! Oh, to meet the stars together, With the silence coming on! Greet the end As a friend a friend, When strong men die together! DayPoems Poem No. 1242 Comment on DayPoems? If you are like us, you have strong feelings about poetry, and about each poem you read.
