They beautifully express his eternal optimism and undying love of human beings and their joyful relationship with each other. I Shall Come to Her lf some there be with aged mien Who wisely smile at love. And say 'tis but a childish dream And one they are above, To them I say who sit and smile, Because they so prefer, I pray I shall not die until My feet have come to her. I know somewhere tonight she sits Within her father's home, While I a foot-loose wanderer Am destined still to roam. But I shall find her out I know And thus within her place She calmly sits and waits for me, And she will know my face. And one sweet day, we two shall meet, Whatever may occur; And so content I wander on, For I shall come to her.
