Loading...

come true-born sons of paddy’s land, come listen unto me
’til i relate and communicate of a mournful tragedy
for want of trade, ten thousand sailed to wander far, to roam
and leave the land where they were reared, called erin’s lovely home

my father being a farmin’ man, reared too in ulstery
he had two sons of tender age and lovely daughters three
our land too small to maintain us all, some of us had to roam
and leave the land wherе we were rеared, called erin’s lovely home

my father sold his second cow, and borrowed twenty pounds
it being in the merry month of june, we sailed from derry town
there were thousands more all on the shore, all anxious for to roam
and leave the land where they were reared, called erin’s lovely home

we were scarcely seven days sailing ’til a fever rent our crew
they were falling like autumn leaves, bidding friends and life adieu
we raised a prayer to him on high: why did we ever roam
and leave the land where we were reared, called erin’s lovely home

alas, my sister, she fell sick. her life was taken away
it grieved me ten times more to see her body thrown into the sea
down in the deep her body lies, and rolls in a terrible form
though friends may mourn, but she’ll never return to erin’s lovely home
