| - | |
| - | |
| Your dextrous wit will haunt us long | B |
| Wounding our grief with yesterday | C |
| Your laughter is a broken song | B |
| And death has found you kind and gay | C |
| - | |
| We may forget those transient things | D |
| That made your charm and our delight | E |
| But loyal love has deathless wings | D |
| That rise and triumph out of night | E |
| - | |
| So in the days to come your name | F |
| Shall be as music that ascends | G |
| When honour turns a heart from shame | F |
| O heart of hearts O friend of friends | G |
