¶Liedtext

Home of my happiest years, Where my young feet delighted strayed Among life’s loveliest flowers; And, all unknown to fears, Hope’s brightening halo round me played, And led the light-winged hours. Its light is on us—calm in Heaven, Serenely bright, its hallowing ray Shall guide us to repose; Eternal hope, in mercy given, To beam on our benighted way, And lull our mortal woes. Sweet home, adieu! the sighing wind Makes lonely music through the hall— None hear its melody. Yet still I cast a look behind, And give a parting tear to all That was so dear to me.
