Текст песни Home Boys Home (Quilty) с переводом

Oh when I was just a young boy, sure I longed to see the world

To sail across the sea in ships and see the sails unfurled

I went to seek my fortune on the far side of the hill

I’ve wandered far and wide and of travel I’ve had my fill

Chorus:

And it’s home, boys, home, home I’d like to be Home for a while in the old country,

Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree

Are all growin' greener in the old country.

Well I left my love behind me and I sailed across the tide,

I said that I’d be back again and take her for my bride.

But many years have passed and gone and I’m still far away,

I know that she’s a fond true love and waiting for the day.

Chorus:

Now I’ve learned there’s more to life than to wander and to roam,

Happiness and peace of mind can best be found at home.

For money can’t buy happiness and money cannot bind,

So I’m going back tomorrow to the girl I left behind.

Chorus:
