Ye too miss me just as I do

Happy you live away from me,
You too, the way I lie to me.

In misty skies when moon I see,
I feel, you’ll today talk to me.

In fragrant blossoms when I see 
Your smile, ah smiles the day to me. 

Every evening seems to tell me:
Wear gay, not grey when come to me.

When I go, ye display grave mood,
Your face gives it away to me.

Alone shall ye fight with the world,
O talk not a child’s way to me.
