Fair and True

Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart
And the wind has brought it to you
Oh the days are the long and the days are hard
But the life proves fair and true
Oh the seasons turn and the summer burns
And the days grow longer anew
Though you’ve left our home for the world to roam
My heart will go with you
Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart
And the wind has brought it to you
Oh the days are the long and the days are hard
But the life proves fair and true
And we sing, dear maiden, of days far gone
Of the loves and losses alike
Though our days of searching are long since gone
We rejoice all through the night
Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart
And the wind has brought it to you
Oh the days are the long and the days are hard
But the life proves fair and true
Oh the Earth has dirtied this lonesome heart
And the wind has brought it to you
Oh the days are the long and the days are hard
But the life proves fair and true
Oh the life proves fair and true
