seven nations back home in derry şarkı sözleri
In 1803 we sailed out to seaOut from the sweet town of DerryFor Australia bound if we didn't all drownAnd the marks of our fetters we carriedAnd rusty iron chains we sighed for our wanesAs our good wives we left home in sorrowAs the main sails unfurled our curses we hurledOn the English and thought of tomorrowWoah-oh-oh-ohI wish I was back home in DerryWoah-oh-oh-ohI wish I was back home in DerryI cursed them to hell as our bough fought the swellOur ship danced like a moth in the firelightWhite horses rode high as the Devil passed byTaking souls to Hades by twilightFive weeks out to sea we were now forty-threeOur comrades we buried each morningAnd in our own slime we were lost and on timeEndless nights without dawningVan Diemen's land is a hell for a manTo live out his life in slaveryWhere climate is raw and the gun makes the lawNeither wind or rain cares for braveryIn the years've gone by an' I've ended my bondAnd comrade's ghosts are behind meA rebel I came and I'll die just the sameOn the cold winds of night you will find me
