|
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 |
