22. Helios, Our Help
in Ages Past

    Helios, our help in ages past
    Our hope for years to come,
    the source of all our energy,
    true hearth of this, our home.

    Time, like an ever rolling stream,
    Bears all its seeds away;
    They fly, forgotten, as a dream
    Dies at the opening day.

    Like flowery fields the nations stand
    Pleased with the morning light;
    The flowers beneath the mower’s hand
    Lie withering ere ‘tis night.
