Tekst piosenki:
1. There is here a strain in a minor key,,
On which white lips love to linger;
And the hand that wakens that harmony
Hath a thin and wasted finger;
But the glad new song is of blended ties
That the earth may no more sunder;
[CHORUS]
And the diffrence seemeth on this wise.
Twixt the sweet songs, Here and Yonder;
And the diffrence seemeth on this wise.
Twixt the sweet songs, Here and Yonder;
2. We sing here of sorrow, of pain and deth
Of sin, bringing death and sorrow;
And the night that floats in the minstrels breath
Hath no star and no tomorrow;
And the glad new song is a starless skies;
Yet a fathers smile beams under;
[CHORUS]
And the diffrence seemeth on this wise.
Twixt the sweet songs, Here and Yonder;
And the diffrence seemeth on this wise.
Twixt the sweet songs, Here and Yonder;
3. We may not ALL sing of the tunefull strain,
This side of the darkend river;
And the lips that waken the sweet refrain
Have a ceaseless moan and quiver;
But tthe sealed lips and the tearful eyes
Are not in the world of wonder.
[CHORUS]
And the diffrence seemeth on this wise.
Twixt the sweet songs, Here and Yonder;
And the diffrence seemeth on this wise.
Twixt the sweet songs, Here and Yonder.
