Pretty Saro (漂亮的萨罗) - Shirley Collins/Dave Braham[00:00:00]
I came to this country in eighteen-forty-nine[00:00:03]
I saw many true loves but never saw mine[00:00:12]
I viewed all around me and I am alone[00:00:21]
And me a poor soldier and far from my home[00:00:31]
It's not the long journey I'm dreading to go[00:00:44]
Nor leaving the country for the deads that I owe[00:00:52]
There is nothing that grieves me nor troubles my mind[00:01:03]
Like leaving pretty saro my darling behind[00:01:14]
I wish I was a poet and could write a fine hand[00:01:32]
I'd write my love a letter that she can't understand[00:01:41]
I'd send it by the island where them waters overflow[00:01:52]
I'd think on pretty saro wherever I know[00:02:04]
Farewell my dear mother likewise father too[00:03:20]
I'm going for to ramble this country all through[00:03:29]
And when I get tired I'll sit down and cry[00:03:40]
And think on pretty saro with tears in my eye[00:03:52]
