| We have laugh d at little jests | F |
| For the fount of hope was gushing | G |

| Shall a light word part us now | E |

| We have been sad together | A |
| We have wept with bitter tears | I |
| O er the grass grown graves where slumber d | J |
| The hopes of early years | K |
| The voices which are silent there | L |
| Would bid thee clear thy brow | E |
| We have been sad together | A |
| Oh what shall part us now | E |
