Keys.

Long ago in old Granada, when the Moors
were forced to fec,
Each man locked his home behind him, taking
in his fight the key.
Hopefully they watched and waited for the
time to come when they
Should return from their long exile to those
homes so far away.
But the mansions in Granada they had left in
e all their prime,
Vanished as the years rolled onward meath the
crumbling touch of time.
Like the Moors, VIC all have dwellings where
We Tainly long to be,
And through all life's changing phases ever
fast we hold the key.
Our fair country lies behind us; we arc exiles,
too, in truth.
For no more shall we behold her. Our Gran
ada's name is Youth.
weshare no delusive day-dreams, and rejoice
when now and then,
Some: old heart strings stir within us, and we
feel.ear youth again.
ave are young" we cry triumphant, thrilled
with old-time joy and glee,
Then the dream fades slowly. softly, leaving
nothing but the keyI
