歌词

[00:10.414] We shall meet, but we shall miss him
[00:17.283] There will be one vacant chair
[00:22.500] We shall linger to caress him
[00:28.120] While we breathe our evening prayer;
[00:34.399] When a year ago we gathered
[00:40.334] Joy was in his mild blue eye,
[00:45.819] But a golden chord is severed
[00:51.830] And our hopes in ruin lie.
[00:57.897] We shall meet, but we shall miss him
[01:04.215] There will be one vacant chair
[01:09.443] We shall linger to caress him
[01:15.503] While we breathe our evening prayer.
[01:31.893] At our fireside, sad and lonely,
[01:37.921] Often will the bosom swell,
[01:43.265] At remembrance of the story
[01:48.738] How our noble Willie sell;
[01:55.485] How he strove to bear our banner
[02:01.011] Through the thickest of the fight,
[02:06.522] And uphold our country's honor
[02:11.635] In the strength of manhood's night.
[02:17.319] We shall meet, but we shall miss him
[02:23.651] There will be one vacant chair
[02:28.869] We shall linger to caress him
[02:35.029] While we breathe our evening prayer.
[02:50.766] True, they tell us wreaths of glory
[02:57.531] Ever more will deck his brow,
[03:01.950] But this soothes the anguish only
[03:07.531] Sweeping o'er our heartstrings now.
[03:14.860] Sleep today, Oh early fallen,
[03:19.201] In thy green and narrow bed,
[03:24.536] Dirges from the pine and cypress,
[03:30.386] Mingle with the tears we shed.
[03:35.578] We shall meet, but we shall miss him
[03:42.249] There will be one vacant chair
[03:48.222] We shall linger to caress him
[03:54.093] While we breathe our evening prayer.
