|
I walked by the west Canadian shore
|
Where I was born beneath the sky,
|
Staggered by and by, I cried,
|
Realizing I was once blind
|
|
I felt the wind blow in from the sea,
|
And it was blowing in on me.
|
Alone I walked while the mountains talked
|
Telling me I must be free
|
|
I have been relieved,
|
My waters shall run free
|
Take me down to the sea
|
---When I die
|
By the shores
|
Of my fathers
|
I will lie felt the sun break through from the sky,
|
And I could hear the seagulls cry,
|
Cry for me, while the wind and the sea,
|
In me, I must be free
|
|
I have been relieved,
|
My waters shall run free,
|
Take me down to the sea
|
---When I die
|
By the shores
|
Of my father
|
I will lie.
