We will go with cheer
To the woodland near,
Where the autumn leaves do glow,
By the cold frost kissed
And all wet with mist,
They are falling sure and slow.

Autumn leaves,
Autumn leaves,
Where the autumn leaves do glow,
Autumn leaves,
Autumn leaves,
To the woods away we go.

We will gather leaves
While the soft wind grieves,
While the soft winds gently blow.
While our hopes are bright
And our hearts are light,
To the woods away we go.

To the home add cheer
From the beauties here,
By entwining garlands fair;
Then in winter drear
They will bring good cheer
As they lend their beauty rare.
