Companion + 

No, never quite alone am I. + 

Of ill why should I borrow? + 

No matter where my footsteps bend + 

There also follows sorrow. + 

And she has taught my lips to sing + 

A rapt and dauntless measure + 

While all the world goes envying + 

My mellow noted treasure. + 

No, I have never walked alone! + 

And as I face tomorrow, + 

If I am bereft of joy + 

I know there will be sorrow. + 
