Oh my brother If the sea should Rise against you Do not fear no Not the darkness Nor your sorrow Take your courage Underneath Oh my brother Since you've been gone, Mother's garden, Has stopped growing Father's age has Started showing Since you set out On the sea Oh my brother Hold the memory 20 summers You were with me Still I'm counting
20 winters Have now pa**ed You're at sea 20 winters You're at sea Oh my brother Do the answers To our questions Hide abroad Oh my brother Bring them back here Bring the language Of our God Oh my brother When you come home All our kin will Celebrate you Yet if you will to Go on searching We will tarry As you're gone
