1.

Do they think of me at home,

Do they ever think of me?

I who shared their ev'ry grief,

I who mingled in their glee?

Have their hearts grown cold and strange,

To the one now doom'd to roam?

I would give the world to know

Do they think of me at home?

2.

Do they think of me at eve,

Of the song I used to sing?

Is the harp I struck untouch'd,

Does a stranger wake the string?

Will no kind forgiving word,

Come across the raging foam?

Shall I never cease to sigh

"Do they think of me at home?"

3.

Do they think of how I loved,

In my happy, early days?

Do they think of him who came,

But could never win theur praise?

I am happy by his side,

And from mine he'll never roam.

But my heart will sadly ask,

"Do they think of me at home?"

J. E. Carpenter
