Go to Sleep, Traveller

(For M.)

Lay down your head
On foreign pillows
You spirited traveller, you!

More adventures
Both familiar and new
Come for you in the morning
You sweet traveller, you!

Feeling your absence keenly
Your friend back home
Awaits your return
Take care of yourself 
That they may see you again
Happy and hale
You kind traveller, you!
