Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GAFA HBIB AJBJ HKLK MNON JPQP| The sun sinks down in the crimson west | A |
| Oh a beautiful sun is he | B |
| With his purple robes and his crown of gold | C |
| And his feet dipped in the sea | B |
| - | |
| Along the shore where the sea weeds lie | D |
| Like threads of her tangled hair | E |
| Naomi stands in the amber glow | F |
| Of the mystical sunset air | E |
| - | |
| Her hair is brown with a yellow tinge | G |
| That rivals the gold of the west | A |
| Her eyes are dark with the velvety glow | F |
| That darkens the pansy's breast | A |
| - | |
| A star shines out in the purple east | H |
| Oh a beautiful star is he | B |
| With his home in the wonderful azure skies | I |
| And his throne in the deep blue sea | B |
| - | |
| There are bars of gold in the crimson west | A |
| And jewels on every bar | J |
| Yet Naomi's soul is beyond the sea | B |
| And her eyes are fixed on the star | J |
| - | |
| O star that shines in the dusky east | H |
| Be thou the star of my youth | K |
| And guide my soul through the shadows of earth | L |
| To the shining gates of truth | K |
| - | |
| There are years that melt in the seas of life | M |
| Like drops in the ocean of time | N |
| And the joys they bring are as soon forgot | O |
| As the words of a careless rhyme | N |
| - | |
| Be thou the light that shall guide me far | J |
| From the years that vanish as rain | P |
| And lead my soul to the feet of God | Q |
| Even through years of pain | P |
