The Songs Of Home Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDAD EFEFGDGDAD| Oh sing once more those dear familiar lays | A |
| Whose gliding measure every bosom thrills | B |
| And takes my heart back to the happy days | A |
| When first I sang them on my native hills | B |
| With the fresh feelings of the olden times | C |
| I hear them now upon a foreign shore | D |
| The simple music and the artless rhymes | C |
| Oh sing those dear familiar lays once more | D |
| Those cheerful lays of other days | A |
| Oh sing those cheerful lays once more | D |
| - | |
| Oh sing once more those joy provoking strains | E |
| Which half forgotten in my memory dwell | F |
| They send the life blood bounding thro' my veins | E |
| And linger round me like a fairy spell | F |
| The songs of home are to the human heart | G |
| Far dearer than the notes that song birds pour | D |
| And of our very nature form a part | G |
| Then sing those dear familiar lays once more | D |
| Those cheerful lays of other days | A |
| Oh sing those cheerful lays once more | D |
