Another beautiful song by The Irish Rovers

Lyrics

Refrain:
Farewell to Nova Scotia, the sea-bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
Will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?

The sun was setting in the west
The birds were singing on every tree
All nature seemed to be at rest
But still there was no rest for me.

Refrain:
Farewell to Nova Scotia, the sea-bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
Will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?

I grieve to leave my native home
I grieve to leave my comrades all
And my parents whom I held so dear
And the bonnie, bonnie lassie that I do adore.

Refrain:
Farewell to Nova Scotia, you sea-bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
Will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?

The drums they do beat and the wars to alarm
The captain calls, we must obey
So farewell, farewell to Nova Scotia's charms
For it's early in the morning I am bound, far away.

Refrain:
Farewell to Nova Scotia, you sea-bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
Will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?

I have two brothers and they are at rest
Their arms are folded on their chest
But a poor simple sailor just like me
Must be tossed and turned on the big dark sea.

Refrain:
Farewell to Nova Scotia, you sea-bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
Will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?
