Rhyme Scheme: ABABA CDEEE FGHGF IJIJI KBKBK LILIM| Where are they that song and tale | A |
| Tell of lands our childhood knew | B |
| Sea locked Faerylands that trail | A |
| Morning summits dim with dew | B |
| Crimson o'er a crimson sail | A |
| - | |
| Where in dreams we entered on | C |
| Wonders eyes have never seen | D |
| Whither often we have gone | E |
| Sailing a dream brigantine | E |
| On from voyaging dawn to dawn | E |

| Leons seeking lands of song | F |
| Fabled fountains pouring spray | G |
| Where our anchors dropped among | H |
| Corals of some tropic bay | G |
| With its swarthy native throng | F |
| - | |
| Shoulder ax and arquebus | I |
| We may find it past yon range | J |
| Of sierras vaporous | I |
| Rich with gold and wild and strange | J |
| That lost region dear to us | I |
| - | |
| Yet behold although our zeal | K |
| Darien summits may subdue | B |
| Our Balboa eyes reveal | K |
| But a vaster sea come to | B |
| New endeavor for our keel | K |
| - | |
| Yet who sails with face set hard | L |
| Westward while behind him lies | I |
| Unfaith where his dreams keep guard | L |
| Round it in the sunset skies | I |
| He may reach it afterward | M |
