Oh, who will remember, oh, who will be sure  And still feel the silence as close as before?  And was there a season without any rain?  Ah, never, oh, never, oh, never again  The time for dividing and no one will speak  Of the sadness of hiding and the softness of sleep  Oh, will there prove nothing of peace till the end?  Oh, never, oh, never, oh, never again  Old man, how you tarry, old man, how you weep  The trinkets you carry and the garlands you keep  For the salt tears of lovers and the whispers of friends  Oh, never, oh, never, oh, never again
