By Thomas Moore 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 passed away; And many a heart that once 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. 340-14 Unrevoked means not called back.
