Come when the night is bright with stars,
Or when the moon is mellow;
Come when the sun his golden bars
Drop on the hay -field yellow.
Come in the twilight sofa and gray,
Come in the night or come in the day
Come ,o love,when're you may
And you are welcome ,welcome.
You are sweet ,o love,dear love
You are soft as the nesting dove
Come toy heart and bring it rest,
As the bird flies to its welcome nest.
Come when my heart is full of grief ,
Or when my heart is merry,
Come with the falling of the leaf
Or with the redd'ing cherry.
Come when the years first blossom blows,
Come when the summer gleams and glows,
Come with the winter's drifting snows,
And you are welcome ,welcome
