thousands are sailing to america - frank harte كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
ah, you brave irish people wherever you may be
i pray, stand a moment and listen to me
your sons and brave daughters are now going away
and thousands are sailing to americay

[chorus]
ah, good luck to them now and safe may they land
they are pushing their wat to a far distant strand
for here in old ireland no longer can stay
and thousands are sailing to americay

[verse 2]
oh the night before leaving they’re bidding goodbye
and it’s early next morning their hearts give a sigh
they will kiss their dear mothers and then they will say
“goodbye, father dear, i am now going away.”

their friends and relations and neighbours also
they are packing their trunks and they’re ready to go
when the tears from their eyes will run down like the rain
and the horses are prancing going off to the train

[chorus]
ah, good luck to them now and safe may they land
they are pushing their wat to a far distant strand
for here in old ireland no longer can stay
and thousands are sailing to americay
[verse 3]
and it’s now you will hear their very last cry
and the handkerchiefs waving to bid them goodbye
the old man, he tells them, “be sure for to write”
and he watches the train till it goes out of sight

they put their foot on the carriage just leaving the stand
they give one look around at their own native land
their hearts, they are breaking at leaving the shore
it’s goodbye, dear old ireland, we’ll ne’er see you more

[chorus]
ah, good luck to them now and safe may they land
they are pushing their wat to a far distant strand
for here in old ireland no longer can stay
and thousands are sailing to americay

[verse 4]
well, it’s god help the mother that rears up the child
and likewise the father who labours and toils
he tries to support them, he works night and day
ah, but when they are reared, sure, they must go away

[chorus]
ah, good luck to them now and safe may they land
they are pushing their wat to a far distant strand
for here in old ireland no longer can stay
and thousands are sailing to americay

- thousands are sailing to america
