Chant music to the drifting snow.

Ah, scattered locks that fringe my face,

With wintry wisps of white and gray!

Ah, sad, dimmed eyes that look away

To artless childhood's tender grace!

To-night those years with joys sublime

Steal over me and fill my soul

With lullabies of bliss that roll

The golden glees of Christmas time.

Again I live in wondrous days,
