Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB CDEDED FGFGFG FAFAFA| When you come home I'll not be round | A |
| To welcome you | B |
| They'll take you to a grassy mound | A |
| So neat and new | B |
| Where I'll be sleeping O so sound | A |
| The ages through | B |

| I'll not be round to broom the hearth | C |
| To feed the chicks | D |
| And in the wee room of your birth | E |
| Your bed to fix | D |
| Rose room that knew your baby mirth | E |
| Your tiny tricks | D |
| - | |
| I'll not be round The garden still | F |
| With bees will hum | G |
| To cheerful you the throstle's bill | F |
| Will not be dumb | G |
| The rambler rose will overspill | F |
| When you will come | G |
| - | |
| Bird bee and bloom they'll greet you all | F |
| With scented sound | A |
| Yet though the joy of your footfall | F |
| Will thrill the ground | A |
| Your mother with her old grey shawl | F |
| Will not be round | A |
