Affettuoso. 04 Oft in the stilly night, When slumber's chain has bound me, 2 Fond mem'ry brings the light of other days around me. The smiles, the tears of boyhood's years, The words of love then spoken, The eyes that shone now dimm'd and gone, The cheerful hearts now broken, Thus in the stilly night, Ere slumber's chain has bound me, Sad mem'ry brings the light of other days a round me. 2 When I remember all The friends, so link'd together, Like leaves in wintry weather; Thus in the stilly night, When slumber's chain has bound me, Sad mem'ry brings the light of other days around me. |
