[00:00.00]Farewell to Nova Scotia, you sea-bound coast,
[00:04.06]let your mountains dark and dreary be.
[00:09.03]For when I'm far away on the briny ocean tossed,
[00:12.75]will you ever heave a sigh and wish for me?
[00:17.66]The sun was setting in the west,
[00:21.70]and the birds were singing on every tree.
[00:26.67]All nature seemed inclined for to rest.
[00:30.49]But still there was no rest for me.

[00:56.15]I grieve to leave my native land,
[01:00.03]and I grieve to leave my comrades all,
[01:04.91]and my parents whom my else so dear,
[01:08.74]and the bonnie, bonnie lass that I do adore.

[01:31.42]
[01:49.04]The drums they do beat and the wars to alarm,
[01:52.97]and the captain call-we must obey.

[02:02.00]for it's early in the morning and I'm far, far away.
