Ever homeward, ever homeward,
yearns the weary rover,
Ever homeward, ever homeward,
till the journey's over.
Warm embraces and friendly
faces, saying welcome home,
Let me lie there 'neath the sky
there, never more to roam.
Ever homeward, ever homeward,
yearns the weary rover.
Ever homeward, over homeward,
now the journey's over.
<musical interlude, followed
by the foreign version>
Ever homeward, ever homeward,
yearns the weary rover.
Ever homeward, over homeward, now the journey's over.
