The splendour falls
On castle walls
And snowy summits old in story
The long light shakes
Across the lakes
And the wild cataract leaps in glory
Blow bugle blow
Set the wild echoes flying
Bugle blow
Answer echoes answer
Dying dying dying dying dying dying
Oh hark oh hear
How thin and clear
And thinner clearer farther going
Oh sweet and far
From cliff and scar
The horns of Elfland faintly blowing
Blow let us hear
The purple glens replying
Bugle blow
Answer echoes answer
Dying dying dying dying dying
Oh love they die
In yon rich sky
They faint on hill or field or river
Our echoes roll
From soul to soul
And grow forever and forever
Blow bugle blow
Set the wild echoes flying
And answer echoes answer
Dying dying dying dying dying dying
