Lyics

When shall we all meet again?

When shall we all meet again?

Oft shall glowing hope expire,

Oft shall wearied love retire,

Oft shall death and sorrow reign

Ere we all shall meet again.



Though in distant lands we sigh,

Parched beneath a hostile sky;

Though the deep between us roll,

Friendship shall unite our souls:

And in fancy's wide domain,

Oft shall we all meet again.



When the dreams of life are fled,

And its wasted lamp is dead;

When in cold oblivion's shade,

Beauty, wealth, and fame are laid;

Where immortal spirits reign,

There may we all meet again.
