I hear the soft note of the echoing voice

Of an old, old love, long dead—

It whispers my sorrowing heart “rejoice”—

For the last sad tear is shed—

The pain that is all but a pleasure will change

For the pleasure that’s all but pain,

And never, oh never, this heart will range

From that old, old love again!

Yes, the pain that is all but a pleasure will change

For the pleasure that’s all but pain,

And never, oh never, our hearts will range

From that old, old love again!

Oh never, — Oh never, oh never our hearts will range

From that old, old love again.

But who is this, whose godlike grace

Proclaims he comes of noble race?

And who is this, whose manly face

Bears sorrow’s interesting trace?

Yes, who is this, whose godlike grace

Proclaims he comes of noble race?

I am a broken-hearted troubadour,

Whose mind’s aesthetic and whose tastes are pure!

Aesthetic! He is aesthetic!

Yes, yes—I am aesthetic

And poetic!

Then, we love you!

They love him! Horror!

They love me! Horror! Horror! Horror!

List, Reginald, while I confess —— Oh, list while we a love confess

A love that's all unselfishness —— That words imperfectly express —That it's unselfish, goodness knows,

Those shell-like ears, ah, do not close —— Those shell-like ears, he, does not close—You won't dispute it I suppose!.

To blighted love’s distracting woes! —— To their recital of their woes!

Again my cursed comeliness —— My jealousy I can't express —— Yes, those shell-like ears, ah, do not close

Spreads hopeless anguish and distress —— Their love they openly confess! ——To blighted love’s distracting woes! ——To their recital of their woes!

Spreads hopeless anguish and distress, distress! —— Their love they openly confess, confess! —— To blighted love’s distracting woes, its woes! —— To their recital of their woes, their woes!

Ah! Again my cursed comeliness —— Oh, list while we our love confess ——My jealousy I can’t express,

Spreads hopeless anguish and distress; ——That words imperfectly express.—Their love they openly confess!

And I shall love you, I shall love. ——Thine ears, oh Fortune, do not close

Those shell-like ears, ah, do not close ——His shell-like ears he does not close

Your ears, ah, do not close! ——To love’s distracting woes!

Thy shell-like ears —— My shell-like ears —— His shell-like ears —— Now is not this ridiculous

Ah, do not close ——I cannot close ——-he does not close ——and is not this preposterous

To blighted love’s distracting woes! ——A thoro’-pac’d absurdity, explain it if you can!

Thy shell-like ears ——My shell-like ears ——His shell-like ears ——Now is not this ridiculous,

Ah, do not close ——I cannot close ——He does not close ——And is not this preposterous

To blighted love’s distracting woes! —— A thoro'-pac'd absurdity, explain it if you can!

To love’s, to love’s distracting woes! —— Explain, explain it if you can,

Love’s woes! — You can.
