1. I yearn for days when I enjoyed
My two friends, though others were obscure

2. Days when we four would gather
Without claims of "we" or "they"

3. In the bliss of an undisturbed union
No slanderer to arouse our scorn

4. Can anyone restore those days to me
As we were, true, never to betray

5. No good is found in those who scheme
To deny me what I treasured most

6. I left the best of all behind
In that land, those camps and homes
