coope, boyes and simpson - the slave’s lament/goal song كلمات الأغنية
[verse]
it was in sweet senegal that my foes did me enthral
for the lands of virgini_oh!
torn from that lovely shore and must never see it more
and, alas, i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
torn from that lovely shore and must never see it more
and, alas, i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
[verse]
all on that charming coast is no bitter snow and frost
like the lands of virgini_oh!
their streams forever flow and their flowers forever blow
and alas i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
their streams forever flow and their flowers forever blow
and, alas, i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
[verse]
the burden i must fare, while the cruel scourge i fear
in the lands of virgni_oh!
and i think on friends most dear with a bitter, bitter tear
and, alas, i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
and i think on friends most dear with a bitter, bitter tear
and, alas, i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
[verse]
it was in sweet senegal that my foes did me enthral
for the lands of virgini_oh!

and, alas, i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
and, alas, i am weary, weary, weary, oh!
