So far away from my home, sweet home
day by day, from land to land i roam
though told by the wind which way to go,
oh, how i long for my home, sweet home.
(clavi)
Boaðe ruoktot alot go dan dovtat tuski
(you can come home in times of harshness.)
boaðe ruoktot alot go dan dovtat vaivui
(you may come home in times of sorrow, too.)
du ruoktu vuordà du alot
(your home will be waiting for you forever)
du ruoktu vuordà du alot
(it will be waiting for you forever.)
fragrant blossoms blooming far away--
do my folks see them as i did long ago?
are they still joyful? are they young at heart?
will i see them again as i did that day?
how far i've come from my childhood home!
there will come a time when my troubles are gone,
and when i shall not be all alone--
till then, i dream of my home, sweet home.

(aaahhh ahhhhhh harmony)
