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.
