Homeland

This is my homeland, my heart is here These are the voices I long to hear No matter how far I may roam I have a homeland, I have a home When the sun goes down in the evening light Whose light goes through starry night When Sirius twinkles to hypnotize It's good to see and realise This is my homeland, my heart is here These are the voices I long to hear No matter how far I may roam I have a homeland, I have a home I love her stories and the teller's gift I love the lonesome piper's drift No greener fields do I need to see These simple things, they comfort me This is my homeland, my heart is here These are the voices I long to hear No matter how far I may roam I have a homeland, I have a home If for some reason I had to quit This river bench where I sit I think I'd weep for an old refrain And never down the pouring rain This is my homeland, my heart is here These are the voices I long to hear No matter how far I may roam I have a homeland, I have a home This is my homeland, my heart is here These are the voices I long to hear No matter how far I may roam I have a homeland, I have a home This is my homeland, my heart is here These are the voices I long to hear No matter how far I may roam I have a homeland, I have a home I have a homeland, I have a home I have a homeland, I have a home
