I
You awake every morning
With a radiating smile.
We are all glad to see you,
Each of us, in our own way.
We come up to you in turns
to take our share of your joyfulness.
II
Karolye is a special and
beautiful woman--
And all the more beautiful
and special
Whenever she is
near to you.
III
Those four stars you see,
The brightest stars on the horizon
There, in the west,
Make the constellation of
Willie the Gentle-hearted.
He is Colin's dog.
IV
As you take to the road,
Remember us, when the sea-wind calms
and the gulls are still––
And be certain,
We are thinking of you.
V
Travel with joyfulness
Fare you well.
