Darling Silva, thon hast left us,
Never more your smiles we'll see;
But we know our loved one'e happy,
For she's crossed life's troubled sea.

Lay away the little clothing
That our darling used to wear,
Along with her little playthings;
She will never need them here.

Never will we bear the pleading
Of her gentle baby voice,
As he called unto his papa,
When he saw him around the house.

Roe Ray never again will waken
At the early hours of morn,
And caress his sleeping mamma,
With his hands so warm.
