Cast and cry, cast and cry
Raise the million pylons high
All our kin were bound to fly
For that far shore forlorn

Onward hie, onward hie
Who but we may tame the sky
Who but we shall distant die
On that far shore forlorn

Velvet blue the meadows lie
Though the haughty ones defy
Gold shall never break our tie
To that far shore forlorn

Mouth to mouth and eye to eye
Sleep where comets whisper by
Sleep while constellations sigh
Of that far shore forlorn

When your spring of hope is dry
Dream of me and hear my cry
Seek to meet me by and by
On that far shore forlorn

On that far shore forlorn
