These scenes so bright, now take their flight
As birds in summer seem to fly;
Again we stand with parting hand,
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.

Refrain

Goodbye, goodbye, we breathe a sigh,
We say farewell with tear-dimmed eye;
God bless you all, God keep you all,
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.

As oft we meet, and dear ones greet,
Heart speaks to heart and eye to eye;
Time speeds away, and soon we say,
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.

Refrain

Sometime we’ll meet, sometime we’ll greet
Each other in that land on high;
There we will stay, and ne­ver say,
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.

Refrain
