Those Evening Bells

________________________________________________
Title:     Those Evening Bells
Author: Thomas Moore [More Titles by Moore]

(AIR.--THE BELLS OF ST. PETERSBURGH.)


Those evening bells! those evening bells!
How many a tale their music tells,
Of youth and home and that sweet time
When last I heard their soothing chime.

Those joyous hours are past away:
And many a heart, that then was gay.
Within the tomb now darkly dwells,
And hears no more those evening bells.

And so 'twill be when I am gone:
That tuneful peal will still ring on,
While other bards shall walk these dells,
And sing your praise, sweet evening bells!





[The end]
Thomas Moore's poem: Those Evening Bells
