So, you 're as young as when you first So fondly smiled on me. True ! Many years have past you fled Like waves from distant seas A lifetime's sunny memories May well atone for these. And sunny they must be to one Who never caused a tear, Whose presence is a talisman All heavy hearts to cheer. Then say no more you 're old, father ! Though silvery is your hair, I can not bear that life should seem To you no longer fair. OUR CHILDHOOD'S HOME. The voices that have mingled here now speak another ton...gue, Or breathe, perchance to alien ears, the songs their mother sung. Sad, strangely sad, in stranger lands, must sound each household tone ; The hearth, the hearth is desolate ! The bright fire quenched and gone ! And of the hearts that here were linked by long-remembered years, Alas ! The brother knows not now when falls the sister's tears ! One haply revels at the feast while one may droop alone ; For broken is the household chain, the bright fire quenched and gone! Not so 'tis not a broken chain ; thy memory binds them still, Thou holy hearth of other days !
