letra de in north america - frank harte

[verse 1]
you lovers all both great and small, that dwell in ireland
i pray you pay attention, whilst i my pen command
oh it was my father’s anger what that drove my love away
but i still have hopes we’ll meet again in north amerikay

my love was fair and handsome to him i gave my hand
and little was our notion that we would ever part
it was in my father’s garden, that this flower it did decay
but i still have hopes ’twill bloom again, in north amerikay

i did not want for money, kind fortune on me shone
out from my father’s castle i stole five-hundred pounds
it was in the town of belfast, my passage i did pay
my mind made up to follow my love into north amerikay

now the captain’s wife was kind to me, as you may understand
and she kept me in her cabin until we reached dry land
it was in the town of quebec that we landed on the quay
and i knew not where to find my love in all amerikay

but i being sick and sore and tired, i went into an inn
and ’twas there i saw my william, the lad i loved, within
i took him gently by the hand and to him i did say
oh i never thought to see your face in all amerikay
so now i hear this couple have got wed as you may understand
and i hear they live quite happily in a town they call saint john
and the money that she took from home, well in gold she paid it down
and she thinks no more on ireland nor ennisk!llin town
