Saro - Sam Amidon[00:00:00]
I came to this country[00:00:18]
Eighteen and forty nine[00:00:23]
I thought myself lucky[00:00:28]
For to be alive[00:00:33]
I looked all around me[00:00:38]
No one could I see[00:00:43]
That I could compare[00:00:48]
With my pretty saree[00:00:53]
I wish I was a poet[00:01:18]
Could write in fine hand[00:01:23]
I write my love a letter[00:01:28]
Once she'd long understand[00:01:33]
I'd send it by the water[00:01:38]
Where the islands overflow[00:01:43]
And I'd think of pretty saro[00:01:48]
Wherever I go[00:01:53]
This not this long journey[00:02:08]
That grieves me for to go[00:02:14]
Nor the country that I'm leaving[00:02:18]
Nor the debts that I owe[00:02:23]
There's one thing that grieves me[00:02:29]
And bears on my mind[00:02:34]
That's leaving my darling[00:02:39]
Pretty saro behind[00:02:44]
