Goodnight, sweet ladies Goodnight, sweet friends You lie but sleeping Someday we will meet again
With rosemary green and bright You’re not forgotten. Eternal night Won’t fade your memory, dim your light You’ve made a difference, you’ve won your fight
We lift our branches, and though we weep No death could conquer, you only sleep Goodnight, sweet ladies Goodnight, sweet friends You lie but sleeping Someday we will meet again
Let no voice falter, let die no flame Let all remember your every name Let faces turn to the starry sky Let songs be heard ’til our throats are dry
