  I was there on the cold Assynt hills
 I heard the hunger cry and the tyrants laughing
 I heard the young men say goodbye to the place where their young dreams were grown
 
 There's a land somewhere where we can build our freedom
 There's a land somewhere where our children will grow strong
 And if our lives should be spared oh we'll need no other reason to sail on, to sail on
 
 On I stood on the shores at St Anne
 And watched them building boats to trade the oceans
 And saw the preacher raise his hand saying children it's time to move on
 
 Oh I watched from the white Waipu sands
 Saw them drop their sails and throw their anchors
 Saw the old men shake each other's hand saying brothers now I think we are home
