Let us oft speak kind words to each other
At home or where'er we may be;
Like the warbling birds on the heather,
The tones will be welcome and free.
They'll gladden the heart that's repining,
Give courage and hope from above,
And where the dark clouds hide the shining,
Let in the bright sunlight of love.
...
Let's oft, then, in kindly tone voices,
Our mutual friendship renew,
Till heart meets with heart and rejoices
In friendship that ever is true.
