Lone Traveller

Wherever it is I roam

I yearn for the lush green grass of home

For here are my friends and family

They always look out for me

Wherever it is I roam

I yearn for the landmarks of home

The places where I was young

Where there is my native tongue

Wherever it is I roam

I yearn for the food at home

The social gatherings of the community

Mean so much, and are such fun to see

Wherever it is I roam

I yearn deeply for my lover

They are like no other

When we are apart by so many miles

The thought of them brings so many smiles.
