Home Again.
Marshall S. Pike,)


Home again. home again. from foreign
shore.
And. oh. it fills my soul with Joy to meet
my friends once more;
Here l dropped the parting tear, to cross
the oceans foam,
But now I'm once again with those who
kindly greet ne home.
Happy hearts. happy hearts, with mine
have laughed in glee,
But. or, the friends l loved in youth seem
happier TO me;
And if my guide should be the fate which
bids me longer roam,
But death alone can break the tie that
binds my heart at home,
Music sweet. music soft. fingers round
And. oh. / feel the Childhood charm tina,
time can not enace:
Then give me but my homestead roof. I'll
asl; no palace dome,
For | can live q happy life with those
love al home.
