Songs My Mother Taught Me

Partifi offers a library of user-contributed scores, of which "Song My Mother Taught Me," is just one. Since the song is most often sung in German, look for the title "Als die Alte Mutter."

Songs my mother taught me, In the days long vanished;
Seldom from her eyelids were the teardrops banished.
Now I teach my children, each melodious measure.
Oft the tears are flowing; oft they flow from my memory's treasure.
