This Moment, Yearning and Thoughtful.

THIS moment yearning and thoughtful, sitting alone, It seems to me there are other men in other lands,  
 yearning and thoughtful;
It seems to me I can look over and behold them, in  
 Germany, Italy, France, Spain—or far, far away,  
 in China, or in Russia or India—talking other  
 dialects;
And it seems to me if I could know those men, I should  
 become attached to them, as I do to men in my  
 own lands;
O I know we should be brethren and lovers, I know I should be happy with them.
