She went her unremembering way,
She went and left in me
The pang of all the partings gone,
And partings yet to be.

Good night! I have to say good night,
To such a host of peerless things!

Kathleen Mavourneen, the gray dawn is breaking,
The horn of the hunter is heard on the hill,
The lark from her light wing the bright dew is shaking--
Kathleen Mavourneen, what, slumbering, still?

Oh hast thou forgotten this day we must part?
It may be for years and it may be forever;
Oh why art thou silent, thou voice of my heart?

Such parting break the heart they fondly hope to heal.

Gone--flitted away,
Taken the stars from the night and the sun
From the day!
Gone, and a cloud in my heart.

Say good-bye er howdy-do--
What's the odds betwixt the two?
Comin'--goin'--every day--
Best friends first to go away--
Grasp of hands you'd ruther hold
Than their weight in solid gold,
Slips their grip while greetin' you,--
Say good-bye er howdy-do?

If we do meet again, we'll smile indeed;
If not, 'tis true this parting was well made.

If we do meet again, we'll smile indeed;

Excuse me, then! you know my heart;
But dearest friends, alas! must part.

Excuse me, then! you know my heart;

They say be parted well and paid his score,
And so, God be with him.
