[Verse 1]
Oh, carry me back to my home
For to find my father dear
'Tis sure his call hath reached my heart
Far around this wide, wide sphere
[Verse 2]
His home sits by the Northern Sea
Where the wind doth frosty blow
And the nightbird trembles ’neath her wing
Where the frigid waters go
[Chorus]
Oh, carry me my father's home
Though his name I've never heard
’Tis sure my heart would know his voice
It's where I'm bound to go
[Verse 3]
All the friends I've loved from here are gone
Their sweet smiles now memories
Oh, carry me back to my home
And my distant family
[Verse 4]
For to be a lost and lonely lass
Leaveth me to fate unkind
And it warms me now to think of those
Fair faces far beyond
[Chorus]
Oh, carry me my father's home
Though his name I've never heard
'Tis sure my heart would know his voice
It's where I’m bound to go
