AUF WIEDERSEHEN

I shall come this way again On some distant morrowWhen the red and golden leaves Have fallen on my sorrow . . . !

I shall come this way again When this day is rottenIn the grave of yesterdays And this hour forgotten. . . . !

I shall come this way again Before the lamp light diesTo comfort you and dry the tear Of penance from your eyes. . . . !
