'MID PLEASURES AND PALACES THOUGH
WE MAY ROAM,
BE IT EVER SO HUMBLE, THERE'S
NO PLACE LIKE HOME:
A CHARM FROM THE SKY SEEMS
TO HALLOW US THERE,
WHICH SEEK THROUGH THE WORLD,
IS NE'ER MET WITH ELSEWHERE.

HOME, HOME, SWEET, SWEET HOME,
BE IT EVER SO HUMBLE,
THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME.

 

AN EXILE FROM HOME, PLEASURE
DAZZLES IN VAIN,
OH: GIVE ME MY LOWLY THATCHED
COTTAGE AGAIN,
THE BIRDS SINGING GAILY THAT
CAME AT MY CALL;
GIVE ME THEM, WITH THAT PEACE
OF MIND DEARER THAN ALL.

HOME, HOME, SWEET, SWEET HOME,
BE IT EVER SO HUMBLE,
THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME.
