paroles de chanson Oh England What Seeds - Nancy Kerr

Oh England dear, what seeds have you planted
On a far Atlantic and Pacific shore?
Our souls in motion on the Indian Ocean
Like willow trees we mourn

Oh England dear, you grew blue bushes
With scented rushes, gum, and spin effects
And you sent poor martyrs down to Port Arthur
With chains around our necks

So England dear, what seeds have you planted
On a far Atlantic and Pacific shore?
Our souls in motion on the Indian Ocean
Like willow trees we mourn

Oh England dear, for your ricks and your harvest
We bore the gravest scars upon our hands
We swore from grievance freedom′s allegiance
And saw Van Diemen's Land.

Oh England dear, what seeds have you planted
On a far Atlantic and Pacific shore?
Our souls in motion on the Indian Ocean
Like willow trees we mourn

Oh England dear, guard well your idols
Your tithe and titles, the gold about your necks
For breezes blowing bring blazes glowing
Bright gum and spin effects

Oh England dear, what seeds have you planted
On a far Atlantic and Pacific shore?
Our souls in motion on the Indian Ocean
Like bitter winds we roar
