Songtext von Rolling Home

Up aloft amid the rigging Swiftly blows a favoring gale Strong as springtime in its blossom, Filling out each swelling sail Rolling home, rolling home, Rolling home across the sea; Rolling home to dear old England Rolling home, dear land to thee! Full ten thousand miles behind us, And a thousand miles before, Ancient ocean waves to waft us To the well-remembered shore. Rolling home, rolling home, Rolling home across the sea; Rolling home to dear old England Rolling home, dear land to thee! Call all hands to man the capstan See the cable run down clear Heave away and with a will boys For old England we will steer Rolling home, rolling home, Rolling home across the sea; Rolling home to dear old England Rolling home, dear land to thee!
