Текст песни Farewell to the Gold (The Black Family) с переводом

Cross over the river the gold is waiting

And it’s years since the colour I’ve seen

And it’s no use just sitting and Lady Luck blaming

I’ll pack up and make the break clean

Farewell to the gold that never I found

Goodbye to the nuggets that somewhere abound

For it’s only when dreaming that I see the gleaming

Down in the dark deep underground

Well it’s nearly two years since I left my own mother

For adventure and gold by the pound

And with Jimmy the prospector, he was another

To the hill of Otago we were bound

Well we worked the Cardona, dry valleys all over

Old Jimmy Williams and me

They were panning good dirt on the winding shot over

So we headed down there just to see

We sluiced and we cradled for day after day

Making hardly enough to get by

Then a terrible flood swept poor Jimmy away

During six stormy days in July

Can be found on the album Time For Touching Home
