| Moving through the dew moving through the dew | B |
| Ere I waken in the city Life thy dawn makes all things new | B |
| And up a fir clad glen far from all the haunts of men | C |
| Up a glen among the mountains oh my feet are wings again | C |
| - | |
| - | |
| Moving through the dew moving through the dew | B |
| O mountains of my boyhood I come again to you | B |
| By the little path I know with the sea far below | D |
| And above the great cloud galleons with their sails of rose and snow | D |
| - | |
| - | |
| As of old when all was young and the earth a song unsung | E |
| And the heather through the crimson dawn its Eden incense flung | E |
| From the mountain heights of joy for a careless hearted boy | F |
| And the lavrocks rose like fountain sprays of bliss that ne er could cloy | F |
| - | |
| - | |
| From their little beds of bloom from the golden gorse and broom | G |
| With a song to God the Giver o er that waste of wild perfume | G |
| Blowing from height to height in a glory of great light | H |
| While the cottage clustered valleys held the lilac last of night | H |
| - | |
| - | |
| So when dawn is in the skies in a dream a dream I rise | I |
| And I follow my lost boyhood to the heights of Paradise | J |
| Life thy dawn makes all things new Hills of Youth I come to you | B |
| Moving through the dew moving through the dew | B |

| Moving through the dew moving through the dew | B |
| Floats a brother s face to meet me Is it you Is it you | B |
| For the night I leave behind keeps these dazzled eyes still blind | K |
| But oh the little hill flowers their scent is wise and kind | K |
| - | |
| - | |
| And I shall not lose the way from the darkness to the day | L |
| While dust can cling as their scent clings to memory for aye | A |
| And the least link in the chain can recall the whole again | C |
| And heaven at last resume its far flung harvests grain by grain | M |
| - | |
| - | |
| To the hill flowers clings my dust and tho eyeless Death may thrust | N |
| All else into the darkness in their heaven I put my trust | N |
| And a dawn shall bid me climb to the little spread of thyme | O |
| Where first I heard the ripple of the fountain heads of rhyme | O |
| - | |
| - | |
| And a fir wood that I know from dawn to sunset glow | D |
| Shall whisper to a lonely sea that swings far far below | D |
| Death thy dawn makes all things new Hills of Youth I come to you | B |
| Moving through the dew moving through the dew | B |
