So many years ago
Ah how these years have flown
As quickly as a tiny bud
Grows to a rose full-blown
Such happy years - such memories
A wealth of warm affection
There was between us long ago
A friendship true perfection
And sometimes I remember you
And how it used to be
I wonder if just now and then
You ever think of me
And if perchance you ever hear
Upon the breeze - a whisper
It's just the faint soft echo
Of a heart that murmurs 'Mispah'
