Twine by the steeling, over the sea
Shadows are falling, dark on the lee
Born on the ninth wind, voices of yore
Come from the far -off shore
Far away, beyond the starry sky, where the blood like never, died,
gleams the mansion filled with delight, sweet happy home so bright.
Voices of loved ones, songs of the past,
still ring around me while I still last.
Lonely I wander, sadly I roam,
seeking that far -off home.
Far away, beyond the starry skies,
Where the love -light never, dies,
Gleams at the manger filled
Sweet, happy homes so bright.
Seeking that far -off home
Far away, beyond the starry skies
Where the love -light never, dies
Sweet, happy home so bright
