Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDC EFFEAGHA CCCCIJJA KKKKAKKA CKKCACCA| Glad winters on the olden farm | A |
| How raptures from those early times | B |
| Commingle into fairy chimes | B |
| Which gently banish cries of harm | A |
| My fainting soul finds rest the whiles | C |
| Within the arms of memory | D |
| And tender scenes of boyish glee | D |
| Transform my sorrows into smiles | C |
| - | |
| How brightly beamed the pleasures then | E |
| When frigid fingers came to throw | F |
| A wintry winding sheet of snow | F |
| Around the silent homes of men | E |
| But happiness found no alarm | A |
| For safe with cheer secure with love | G |
| She gladly grew and sweetly throve | H |
| Through winters on the olden farm | A |
| - | |
| With merry bells and busy sleighs | C |
| That sung and flew o'er icy vales | C |
| And climbed the hills as fleet as gales | C |
| Like singing phantoms died the days | C |
| Or then with coat and muffler warm | I |
| Sweet children glided on the lake | J |
| Or chased the rabbit through the brake | J |
| In winters on the olden farm | A |
| - | |
| How glad the joys at eventide | K |
| When 'round the hearth stone's pleasant heat | K |
| The simple song in music sweet | K |
| From loving voices floated wide | K |
| The mellowed apples gave a charm | A |
| While pop corn white and cider bright | K |
| With worlds of laughter lent delight | K |
| To winters on the olden farm | A |
| - | |
| Thrice happy nights and happy days | C |
| Sweet isles of pleasure in the past | K |
| May long your hallowed moments cast | K |
| A sacred sunshine o'er my ways | C |
| And where life leads me gladly arm | A |
| My soul with angel songs of bliss | C |
| With true embrace and holy kiss | C |
| O winters on the olden farm | A |
