A long time since have been at home,
No room I still have found,
My dreams abound, of a place I had known,
A country seas apart.
My land to me, a stranger been,
Even years though have depart,
My dreams abound, of a nest elsewhere,
Where sand and sun goes down.
Mind though here, heart astray,
Memories of yore still spun,
My dreams abound, of a time spent well,
In the hearth, some miles away.
I wish it were, again someday,
When a flight was all it took,
My dreams abound, I'd now return,
With the wings of the migratory bird.
