[00:18.40]In the year of '39
[00:21.28]assembled here the Volunteers.
[00:22.66]In the days when lands were few.
[00:27.40]Here the ship sailed out
[00:29.15]into the blue and sunny morning.
[00:31.86]The sweetest sight ever seen !
[00:35.74]" And the night followed day. "
[00:38.36]And the story tellers say :
[00:40.86]" That the score brave souls inside.
[00:45.35]For many a lonely day
[00:47.35]sailed across the milky seas.
[00:49.68]Ne'er looked back,
[00:51.11]never feared,
[00:51.86]never cried. "
[00:54.42]Don't you hear my call
[00:56.73]though you're many years away ?
[00:59.16]Don't you hear me calling you ?
[01:03.72]Write your letters in the sand
[01:06.10]for the day I take your hand
[01:08.36]in the land that our
[01:10.50]grandchildren knew.

[01:43.25]In the year of '39,
[01:44.81]came a ship in from the blue.
[01:47.19]The Volunteers came home that day.
[01:51.76]And they bring good news
[01:53.89]of a world so newly born,
[01:56.51]though their hearts so heavily weight.
[02:01.12]For the earth is old and grey,
[02:04.18]little darling we'll away
[02:06.49]but my love this cannot be.
[02:09.98]For so many years have gone
[02:12.11]though I'm older but a year.
[02:14.48]Your mother's eyes
[02:15.60]from your eyes
[02:16.74]cry to me.
[02:18.11]
[02:19.24]Don't you hear my call
[02:21.44]though you're many years away ?
[02:23.82]Don't you hear me calling you ?
[02:28.38]Write your letters in the sand
[02:30.62]for the day I take your hands.
[02:33.24]In the land that our
[02:35.49]grandchildren knew.
[02:37.80]Don't you hear my call
[02:39.98]though you're many years away ?
[02:42.42]Don't you hear me calling you ?
[02:46.72]All your letters in the sand
[02:49.16]cannot heal me like your hand.
[02:51.73]For my life !
[02:53.06]Still ahead !
[02:53.87]Pity Me !
