Yet lone is the star that shines in her crown.
Though sickness and sorrow are common to all,
In our joy let our hearts the departed recall;
Let us think of the friend
In her youth so beloved;
May our blessing attend
On his home far removed!
His name, held so dear, to our children be told!
He loved her, revered her, in days that are old.
He blesses her still, her children among;
