"Twas the Fifth Day of November,
I've a reason to remember
When first he returned to his family and wife
They stood so surprised, when first he did enter
To behold such a stranger once more in their sight

"His children came around him
with their prittle-prattling stories
their prittle-prattling stories,to drive care away
Now they are united like birds of one feather
Like bees in one hive contented they'll be."

That's from "Spencer the Rover", as sung by the Copper Family. I think it matches the mood. It's my favourite Welcome Home song. (Not in the DT so far as I could see. If I'm right in that I'll send it in if somebody else doesn't beat me to it.)
