I'M WITH YOU, DEAR SISTERS.
I'm with you, dear sisters!
I'm with you once more;
Kind greetings await me,
Fond friends at the door.
I'm with you once more;
Kind greetings await me,
Fond friends at the door.
All hasten to meet me,
And welcome me home;
Oh, why from such friends
Should my footsteps e'er roam?
And welcome me home;
Oh, why from such friends
Should my footsteps e'er roam?
I have not been long, dearest sisters, away,
But sad was my heart, though brief was my stay;
So kind and so gentle, so loving and true,
In joy and in sadness, I 'm ever with you.
But sad was my heart, though brief was my stay;
So kind and so gentle, so loving and true,
In joy and in sadness, I 'm ever with you.
