[‘Beyond the sea, beyond the sea]
‘Beyond the sea, beyond the sea,
My heart is gone, far, far from me;
And ever on its track will flee
My thoughts, my dreams, beyond the sea.
My heart is gone, far, far from me;
142
My thoughts, my dreams, beyond the sea.
‘Beyond the sea, beyond the sea,
The swallow wanders fast and free:
Oh, happy bird! were I like thee,
I, too, would fly beyond the sea.
The swallow wanders fast and free:
Oh, happy bird! were I like thee,
I, too, would fly beyond the sea.
‘Beyond the sea, beyond the sea,
Are kindly hearts and social glee:
But here for me they may not be;
My heart is gone beyond the sea.’”
Are kindly hearts and social glee:
But here for me they may not be;
My heart is gone beyond the sea.’”
