Bring Me My Harp, William Vincent Walllace, Edward Fitzball

Historic Sheet Music Collection

Bring me my harp, that I may wake Old chords of byegone hours: My fairy bark upon the lake, The banks of golden flow'rs; The cheerful fire that burnt so bright Upon my father's hearth, Affection's look of starry light Which beam'd upon my birth. Affection's look of starry light Which beam'd upon my birth. Aid me my harp, that I may sing The strain she lov'd to hear, Altho' from out this heart it wring At ev'ry note a tear; Those tears so sweet, oh, do not chide Nor offer joys relief, For know to calm sad mem'ry's tide, …

Captain Jinks, T Maclagan

Historic Sheet Music Collection

1. I am Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines,

I often live beyond my means,

I sport young ladies in their teens,

Dreams, Faustina Hasse Hodges

Historic Sheet Music Collection

I have had sweet dreams of childhood's bright and sunny hours,

When I wander'd all day by the sparkling streams,

And cull'd for my mother the gay wild flow'rs.

When I wove her a wreath of the greenwoodbine,

And twin'd in it berries and violets gay!

And I crown'd her pale forehead and she kiss'd mine,

Ah! she like the flowers has faded away,

She has faded away! faded away!

Beneath whose branches spreading wide,

I have sported away, in childish glee

The fleet-winged hours …
