Lyrics Farewell to Nova Scotia

Farewell to Nova Scotia
The sea bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briney oceans tossed will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me
The sun was setting in the west
The birds were singing on every tree
All nature seems to be at rest but alas there was no rest for me
Farewell to Nova Scotia
The sea bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briney oceans tossed will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me
I grieve to leave my native home
I grieve to leave my comrades' arms
And my parents whom
I hold so dear
And the bonny, bonny lass
I do adore
Farewell to Nova Scotia
The sea bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briney oceans tossed will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me
The drums do beat and the wars do alarm
My captain calls
I must obey
Farewell, farewell to Nova Scotia's charms
For it's early in the morning
I am bound far away
Farewell to Nova Scotia
The sea bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briney oceans tossed will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me
I have two brothers and they are at rest
Their arms are folded on their chest
But a poor and simple sailor just like me must be tossed and turned in the deep dark sea
Farewell to Nova Scotia
The sea bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briney oceans tossed will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me
Farewell to Nova Scotia
The sea bound coast
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
When I am far away on the briney oceans tossed will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me
