Original text and translations
English text
- There is an old belief,
- That on some solemn shore,
- Beyond the sphere of grief
- Dear friends shall meet once more.
- Beyond the sphere of Time and Sin
- And Fate's control,
- Serene in changeless prime
- Of body and of soul.
- That creed I fain would keep
- That hope I'll ne'er forgo,
- Eternal be the sleep,
- If not to waken so.
J. G. Lockhart - (1794-1854)
