Over the mountains under the snow	A
Lieth a valley cold and low	A
'Neath a white immovable pall	B
Desolate dreary soulless all	C
And soundless save when the wintry blast	D
Sweeps with funeral music past	D
	-
Yet was that valley not always so	A
For I trod its summer paths long ago	A
And I gathered flowers of fairest dyes	E
Where now the snow drift heaviest lies	E
And I drank from rills that with murmurous song	F
Wandered in golden light along	F
Through bowers whose ever fragrant air	G
Was heavy with perfume of flowrets fair	G
Through cool green meadows where all day long	F
The wild bee droned his voluptuous song	F
While over all shone the eye of Love	H
In the violet tinted heavens above	H
	-
And through that valley ran veins of gold	I
And the rivers o'er beds of amber rolled	I
There were pearls in the white sands thickly sown	J
And rocks that diamond crusted shone	J
All richest fruitage all rarest flowers	K
All sweetest music of summer bowers	K
All sounds the softest all sights most fair	G
Made Earth a paradise everywhere	G
	-
Over the mountains under the snow	A
Lieth that valley cold and low	A
There came no slowly consuming blight	L
But the snow swept silently down at night	L
And when the morning looked forth again	M
The seal of silence was on the plain	N
And fount and forest and bower and stream	O
Were shrouded all from his pallid beam	O
	-
And there deep hidden under the snow	A
Is buried the wealth of the long ago	A
Pearls and diamonds veins of gold	I
Priceless treasures of worth untold	I
Harps of wonderful sweetness stilled	P
While yet the air was with music filled	P
Hands that stirred the resounding string	Q
To melodies such as the angels sing	Q
Faces radiant with smile and tear	G
That bent enraptured the strains to hear	R
And high calm foreheads and earnest eyes	E
That came and went beneath sunset skies	E
	-
There they are lying under the snow	A
And the winds moan over them sad and low	A
Pale still faces that smile no more	S
Calm dosed eyelids whose light is o'er	T
Silent lips that will never again	M
Move to music's entrancing strain	N
White hands folded o'er marble breasts	U
Each under the mantling snow drift rests	U
And the wind their requiem sounds o'er and o'er	T
In the oft repeated no more no more	S
	-
No more no more I shall ever hear	R
That funeral dirge in its meanings drear	R
But I may not linger with faltering tread	V
Anear my treasures anear my dead	V
On through many a thorny maze	W
Up slippery rocks and through tangled ways	W
Lieth my cloud mantled path afar	R
From that buried vale where my treasures are	R
	-
But there bursts a light through the heavy gloom	X
From the sun bright towers of my distant home	Y
And fainter the wail of the sad no more	R
Is heard as slowly I near that shore	R
And sweet home voices come soft and low	A
Half drowning that requiem's dirge like flow	A
	-
I know it is Sorrow's baptism stern	Z
That hath given me thus for my home to yearn	Z
That has quickened my ear to the tender call	C
That down from the jasper heights doth fall	C
And lifted my soul from the songs of Earth	A2
To music of higher and holier birth	A2
Turning the tide of a yearning love	H
To the beautiful things that are found above	H
And I bless my Father through blinding tears	B2
For the chastening love of departed years	C2
For hiding my idols so low so low	A
Over the mountains under the snow	A
