And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.

Whose songs gushed from his heart,
As showers from the clouds of summer,
Or tears from the eyelids start.

Where'er a noble deed is wrought,
Where'er is spoken a noble thought,
Our hearts in glad surprise
To higher levels rise.
