letra de a life in the west - henry russell
(verse 1)
oh! brothers, come hither, and list to my story
merry and brief will the narrative be
here, like a monarch, i reign in my glory
master am i, boys, of all that i see:
where once frown’d a forest a garden is smiling
the meadows and moorlands are marshes no more;
and there curls the smoke of my cottage, beguiling
the children who cl-ster like grapes at the door
(chorus)
then enter, boys–cheerly, boys, enter and rest;
the land of the heart is the land of the west!
o-ho! boys! o-ho! boys! o-ho! boys! o-ho!
(verse 2)
talk not of the town, boys, give me the broad prairie
where man, like the wind, rolls impulsive and free;
behold how its beautiful colours all vary
like those of the clouds, or the deep-rolling sea
a life in the woods, boys, is even as changing
with proud independence we season our cheer;
and those who the world are for happiness ranging
won’t find it at all if they don’t find it here
(chorus)
then enter, boys–cheerly, boys, enter and rest;
the land of the heart is the land of the west!
o-ho! boys! o-ho! boys! o-ho! boys! o-ho!
(verse 3)
here, brothers, secure from all turmoil and danger
we reap what we sow, for the soil is our own;
we spread hospitality’s board for the stranger
and care not a fig for the king on his throne
we never know want, for we live by our labour
and in it contentment and happiness find;
we do what we can for a friend or a neighbour
and die, boys, in peace and good-will to mankind
(chorus)
then enter, boys–cheerly, boys, enter and rest;
the land of the heart is the land of the west!
o-ho! boys! o-ho! boys! o-ho! boys! o-ho!
