Though bleak these woods and damp the groundA
With fallen leaves so thickly strownB
And cold the wind that wanders roundA
With wild and melancholy moanB
There is a friendly roof I knowB
Might shield me from the wintry blastC
There is a fire whose ruddy glowB
Will cheer me for my wanderings pastC
-
And so though still where'er I goB
Cold stranger glances meet my eyeD
Though when my spirit sinks in woeB
Unheeded swells the unbidden sighD
-
Though solitude endured too longE
Bids youthful joys too soon decayF
Makes mirth a stranger to my tongueG
And overclouds my noon of dayF
-
When kindly thoughts that would have wayF
Flow back discouraged to my breastH
I know there is though far awayF
A home where heart and soul may restH
-
Warm hands are there that clasped in mineB
The warmer heart will not belieD
While mirth and truth and friendship shineB
In smiling lip and earnest eyeD
-
The ice that gathers round my heartI
May there be thawed and sweetly thenB
The joys of youth that now departI
Will come to cheer my soul againB
-
Though far I roam that thought shall beJ
My hope my comfort everywhereK
While such a home remains to meJ
My heart shall never know despairK
