Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH GJKJHave I no future left me | A |
Is there no struggling ray | B |
From the sun of my life outshining | C |
Down on my darksome way | B |
- | |
Will there no gleam of sunshine | D |
Cast o'er my path its light | E |
Will there no star of hope rise | F |
Out of this gloom of night | E |

Oh I have hopes and yearnings | G |
Hopes that I know are vain | J |
And knowledge robs life of pleasure | K |
And death of its only pain | J |
