English text
When the morning wakes in splendor
On thy glad and happy home,
And the golden sunbeams render
Light upon the path you roam;
When the earth is clad in gladness,
And the birds sing joyously,
When you feel no thought of sadness,
Oh, then think of home and me.
When the evening with its sorrow
Comes to thee with fair hopes dead,
And there beams no brighter morrow,
Calling back the joys now fled;
When the world seems cold and dreary,
And the birds sing not for thee,
When thy heart grows faint and weary,
Oh, then think of love and me.
