Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD EEFFGGDD| What dreams we have and how they fly | A |
| Like rosy clouds across the sky | A |
| Of wealth of fame of sure success | B |
| Of love that comes to cheer and bless | B |
| And how they wither how they fade | C |
| The waning wealth the jilting jade | C |
| The fame that for a moment gleams | D |
| Then flies forever dreams ah dreams | D |

| O burning doubt and long regret | E |
| O tears with which our eyes are wet | E |
| Heart throbs heart aches the glut of pain | F |
| The somber cloud the bitter rain | F |
| You were not of those dreams ah well | G |
| Your full fruition who can tell | G |
| Wealth fame and love ah love that beams | D |
| Upon our souls all dreams ah dreams | D |
