lirik lagu frank harte - erin's lovely home

[verse 1]
come, all you sons of paddy’s land, and listen unto me
till i relate of the hardships great of crossing o’er the sea
for the want of bread the thousands fled so far across the foam
and left the land where they were born called erin’s lovely home

[verse 2]
black ’47 i’ll never forget when the fever it stalked the land
and the famine without mercy it stretched forth it’s dreadful hand
there’s many’s thе child in cold death lay and parents they did mourn
whilе the landlord’s agent pulled down the roof in erin’s lovely home

[verse 3]
my father was a farming man reared to industry
he had three sons, they were men strong, and lovely daughters three
our farm was too small to feed us all so some of us had to roam
with sisters two i bid adieu to erin’s lovely home

[verse 4]
my father sold the second cow and he borrowed twenty pounds
and in the merry month of may we sailed from sligo town
there were thousands more left upon the shore all anxious for to roam
and leave the land where they were born called erin’s lovely home

[verse 5]
we were scarcely seven days at sea when a fever it plagued our crew
they were falling like the autumn leaves bidding friends and life adieu
now the raging waves sweep o’er their graves, amidst the ocean foam
their friends may mourn but they’ll never return to erin’s lovely home
[verse 6]
my loving sisters they both took ill and their lives they were taken away
and oh it grieved my heart full sore for to cast them in the sea
down in the deep they now do sleep and they never more will roam
but in heaven i’ll meet with my sisters sweet from erin’s lovely home

[verse 7]
now i’m in the land of liberty where plenty it does abound
where the labouring man gets full reward for the tilling of his ground
there’s naught i see that can comfort me as an exile i must roam
and end my days far far away from erin’s lovely home

[verse 8]
now to conclude i will bid adieu to all my friends so dear
i know i’ll never return again or hope to see them here
i will live content what e’er god sends in this land beyond the foam
but it’s many’s the tear i will shed here far from erin’s lovely home
