Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEFF FFGGCC HHFFFF C FFII| I dream again I 'm in the lane | A |
| That leads me home through night and rain | A |
| Again the fence I see and dense | B |
| The garden wet and sweet of sense | B |
| Then mother's window with its starry line | C |
| Of light o'ergrown with rose and trumpetvine | C |
| - | |
| What was 't I heard Her voice A bird | D |
| Singing Or was 't the rain that stirred | D |
| The dripping leaves and draining eaves | E |
| Of shed and barn one scarce perceives | E |
| Past garden beds where oldtime flowers hang wet | F |
| Pale phlox and candytuft and mignonette | F |
| - | |
| The hour is late I can not wait | F |
| Quick Let me hurry to the gate | F |
| Upon the roof the rain is proof | G |
| Against my horse's galloping hoof | G |
| And if the old gate with its weight and chain | C |
| Should creak she 'll think it just the wind and rain | C |
| - | |
| Along I 'll steal with cautious heel | H |
| And at the lamplit window kneel | H |
| And there she 'll sit and rock and knit | F |
| While on her face the light will flit | F |
| As I have seen her many a night and day | F |
| Dreaming of home that is so far away | F |
| - | |
| Upon the pane dim blurred with rain | C |
| I 'll knock and call out 'Home again ' | - |
| And at a stride fling warm and wide | F |
| The door and catch her to my side | F |
| Mother as once I clasped her when a boy | I |
| Sobbing my heart out on her breast for joy | I |
