《Saro》歌词

[00:00:00] Saro - Sam Amidon

[00:00:18] I came to this country

[00:00:23] Eighteen and forty nine

[00:00:28] I thought myself lucky

[00:00:33] For to be alive

[00:00:38] I looked all around me

[00:00:43] No one could I see

[00:00:48] That I could compare

[00:00:53] With my pretty saree

[00:01:18] I wish I was a poet

[00:01:23] Could write in fine hand

[00:01:28] I write my love a letter

[00:01:33] Once she'd long understand

[00:01:38] I'd send it by the water

[00:01:43] Where the islands overflow

[00:01:48] And I'd think of pretty saro

[00:01:53] Wherever I go

[00:02:08] This not this long journey

[00:02:14] That grieves me for to go

[00:02:18] Nor the country that I'm leaving

[00:02:23] Nor the debts that I owe

[00:02:29] There's one thing that grieves me

[00:02:34] And bears on my mind

[00:02:39] That's leaving my darling

[00:02:44] Pretty saro behind
