How happy, happy were the days
When we together strayei
Along the meadows, by the brook,
And through the leafy glade
And many labyrinth OF shade
We slowly wandered through
BY pathways only wide enough
For Just us two.
What charming walks, what precious
talks,
What silences profound,
Were ours, as closely linked we went
O'er this enchanted ground !
The birds sang sweetly overhead,
The skies above were blue,
And oil the world seemed freshly
made
For just us two.
The other lads and lasses went
BY dozcus and by scores,
To have their fun and play their
games
Together out Of doors;
While we apart from such q crowd
Contentedly withdrew,
And favored vehicels with room
For just us two.
And now in cosy fashion we
Have settled down in life;
A husband proud and lover like,
A most devoted wife;
And should you go from pole to pole,
Aud search 3ho wide world throtgh,
You'll never meet a happier pair
Than just us two.
