Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDF GHGHIJIJ KLKLMNMN OPOPQRQR S| Away away ye notes of woe | A |
| Be silent thou once soothing strain | B |
| Or I must flee from hence for oh | A |
| I dare not trust those sounds again | C |
| To me they speak of brighter days | D |
| But lull the chords for now alas | E |
| I must not think I may not gaze | D |
| On what I am on what I was | F |
| - | |
| The voice that made those sounds more sweet | G |
| Is hush'd and all their charms are fled | H |
| And now their softest notes repeat | G |
| A dirge an anthem o'er the dead | H |
| Yes Thyrza yes they breathe of thee | I |
| Beloved dust since dust thou art | J |
| And all that once was harmony | I |
| Is worse than discord to my heart | J |
| - | |
| 'Tis silent all but on my ear | K |
| The well remember'd echoes thrill | L |
| I hear a voice I would not hear | K |
| A voice that now might well be still | L |
| Yet oft my doubting soul 'twill shake | M |
| Even slumber owns its gentle tone | N |
| Till consciousness will vainly wake | M |
| To listen though the dream be flown | N |
| - | |
| Sweet Thyrza waking as in sleep | O |
| Thou art but now a lovely dream | P |
| A star that trembled o'er the deep | O |
| Then turn'd from earth its tender beam | P |
| But he who through life's dreary way | Q |
| Must pass when heaven is veil'd in wrath | R |
| Will long lament the vanish'd ray | Q |
| That scatter'd gladness o'er his path | R |
