We
meet
'neath
the
sounding
rafters,
And
the
walls
around
are
bare;
As
they
echo
to
our
laughter
′Twould
not
seem
that
the
dead
were
there.
So
stand
to
your
glasses
steady,
'Tis
all
we
have
left
to
prize.
Quaff
a
cup
to
the
dead
already
And
one
to
the
next
who
dies.
Who
dreads
to
the
dead
returning,
Who
shrinks
from
that
sable
shore
Where
the
high
and
haughty
yearning
Of
the
souls
will
be
no
more?
Cho:
Cut
off
from
the
land
that
bore
us,
Betrayed
by
the
land
we
find,
When
the
brightest
have
gone
before
us
And
the
dullest
remain
behind.
Cho:
There's
a
mist
on
the
glass
congealing,
′Tis
the
hurricane′s
fiery
breath
And
'tis
thus
that
the
warmth
of
feeling
Turns
ice
in
the
grasp
of
death.
Cho:
There
is
many
a
head
that
is
aching,
There
is
many
a
cheek
that
is
sunk,
There
is
many
a
heart
that
is
breaking,
Must
burn
with
the
drinks
we
have
drunk.
Cho:
There
is
not
time
for
repentance,
′Tis
folly
to
yield
to
despair,
When
a
shudder
may
finish
a
sentence,
Or
death
put
an
end
to
a
prayer.
Cho:
Time
was
when
we
frowned
on
others,
We
thought
we
were
wiser
then;
But
now
let
us
all
be
brothers,
For
we
never
may
meet
again.
Cho:
But
a
truce
to
this
mournful
story,
For
death
is
a
distant
friend.
So
here's
to
a
life
of
glory,
And
a
laurel
to
crown
each
end.
