Текст песни
The seagulls are calling and the wind is in the sail
And she's fast moving over the sea
For a ship bound for St. John's three thousand miles away
A human cargo my comrades and me
Fare thee well green valleys God keep you the same
If in only my mind you'll be
For I'm sailing dark waters to far Americay
Never more my green valleys to see
There's a fever a-raging and the winds have died away
And our journey will no longer be
Though the plague is a shadow that lingers night and day
Former thoughts of green valleys I see
Fare thee well green valleys God keep you the same
If in only my mind you'll be
For I'm sailing dark waters to far Americay
Never more my green valleys to see
It hurts me to think of the things I've left behind
Though the famine has blackened the land
And to look now for something that I may never find
Is a problem that's now close at hand
Fare thee well green valleys God keep you the same
If in only my mind you'll be
For I'm sailing dark waters to far Americay
Never more my green valleys to see
Never more my green valleys to see...
