Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDF DGDGDHDI DDDDJKJK BBBBDDDD| Has sorrow thy young days shaded | A |
| As clouds o'er the morning fleet | B |
| Too fast have those young days faded | C |
| That even in sorrow were sweet | B |
| Does Time with his cold wing wither | D |
| Each feeling that once was dear | E |
| Then child of misfortune come hither | D |
| I'll weep with thee tear for tear | F |
| - | |
| Has love to that soul so tender | D |
| Been like our Lagenian mine | G |
| Where sparkles of golden splendour | D |
| All over the surface shine | G |
| But if in pursuit we go deeper | D |
| Allured by the gleam that shone | H |
| Ah false as the dream of the sleeper | D |
| Like Love the bright ore is gone | I |
| - | |
| Has Hope like the bird in the story | D |
| That flitted from tree to tree | D |
| With the talisman's glittering glory | D |
| Has Hope been that bird to thee | D |
| On branch after branch alighting | J |
| The gem did she still display | K |
| And when nearest and most inviting | J |
| Then waft the fair gem away | K |
| - | |
| If thus the young hours have fleeted | B |
| When sorrow itself look'd bright | B |
| If thus the fair hope hath cheated | B |
| That led thee along so light | B |
| If thus the cold world now wither | D |
| Each feeling that once was dear | D |
| Come child of misfortune come hither | D |
| I'll weep with thee tear for tear | D |
