Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEF BABA| Oh tell me ye breezes that spring from the west | A |
| Oh tell me ere passing away | B |
| If Leichhardt s bold spirit has fled to its rest | A |
| Where moulders the traveller s clay | B |
| Perchance as ye flitted on heedlessly by | C |
| The long lost was yielding his breath | D |
| Perchance ye have borne on your wings the last sigh | C |
| That scap d from the lone one in death | D |

| Tell me ye breezes ye ve traversed the wild | E |
| And passed o er the desolate spot | F |
| Where reposeth in silence sweet Nature s own child | E |
| Where slumbers one nearly forgot | F |
| - | |
| Ye answer me not but are passing away | B |
| Ye breezes that spring from the west | A |
| Unhallow d still moulders the traveller s clay | B |
| For unknown is the place of his rest | A |
