Buried In the Deep

[Verse 1]
The land where I was born
Is forsaken, and I can no longer call it home
It's beauty is forlon
It's no place for my family, ach ó mó bhróin
Our ship will soon be sailing
But will we ever mend?
And we're the lucky leavin
America is calling

[Verse 2]
Our vessel leaves the port
Brimful of hearts like mine that have been broken
We carry here on board
A sadness that with words cannot be spoken
It's farewell to you, poor Erin
And to all your bitter shore
No good left in your rearing
I bid you better faring

[Verse 3]
Provisions havе run light
This journey feels like going on forevеr
No land is yet in sight
And I fear that I am failing with the fever
When I die, they'll set me over
That'll cure my broken heart
My dreams can go no further
I'll give them to the water now
Just like so many others
Far from any land or home
Our mothers and our fathers

[Outro]
We're buried in the deep
Where hunger cannot find us
We’re buried in the deep
Far from any land or home
We’re buried in the deep
Our ship, she keeps on sailing
America is calling
