Welcome... Oh Long Departed
Welcome, oh long-departed
Greetings, welcome well received
Welcome, a million welcomes
We are cheered by your presence
A leader, home illuminated by you
Among your tribe and family
Arriving home, receive esteem
From our hearts we are proud of you
Invoking God, may He respond
Joy and fortune won by you
Lightened your world softly
Among the young and the old
Forthcoming fortune reveals
One who delights and is with you delighted
Of bright cheeks, with wisps
Feeling you struck her when she struck you

From you, my life, I saw its sun and moon ...
