Rhyme Scheme: ABCBCA DEDEDD FGHGFF FAFAFF AACACA| Where is the road to Arcady | A |
| Where is the path that leads to peace | B |
| Where shall I find the bliss to be | C |
| Where shall the weary wanderings cease | B |
| These are the questions that come to me | C |
| Where is the road to Arcady | A |
| - | |
| Is there a mystic time and place | D |
| To which some day shall the traveler fare | E |
| Where there is never a frowning face | D |
| And never a burden hard to bear | E |
| Where we as children shall romp and race | D |
| Is there a mystic time and place | D |
| - | |
| For Arcady is an earthly sphere | F |
| Where only the gentlest breezes blow | G |
| A port of rest for the weary here | H |
| Where the velvet grass and the clover grow | G |
| I question it oft is it far or near | F |
| For Arcady is an earthly sphere | F |
| - | |
| And the answer comes it is very near | F |
| It's there at the end of a little street | A |
| Where your children's voices are ringing clear | F |
| And you catch the patter of little feet | A |
| Where is the spot that is never drear | F |
| And the answer comes it is very near | F |
| - | |
| For each man buildeth his Arcady | A |
| And each man fashions his Port of Rest | A |
| And never shall earth spot brighter be | C |
| Than the little home that with peace is blessed | A |
| So seek it not o'er the land and sea | C |
| For each man buildeth his Arcady | A |
