Full Lyrics
Home again, Home again,
From a foreign shore,
And oh! it fills my soul with joy
To meet my friends once more.
Here I dropped the parting tear,
To cross the ocean’s foam,
But now I’m once again with those,
Who kindly greet me home;
Home again, Home again,
From a foreign shore,
And oh! it fills my soul with joy
To meet my friends once more.
Happy hearts, Happy hearts,
With mine have laughed in glee;
But oh! the friends I loved in youth
Seem happier to me;
And if my guide should be fate
Which bids me longer roam;
But death alone can break the tie
That binds my heart to home;
Home again, Home again,
From a foreign shore,
And oh! it fills my soul with joy
To meet my friends once more.
Music sweet, Music soft,
Lingers ’round the place,
And oh! I feel the childhoodcharm
That time cannot efface.
Then give me but my homestead roof,
I’ll ask no palace dome;
For I can live a happy life
With those I love at home.
Home again, Home again,
From a foreign shore,
And oh! it fills my soul with joy
To meet my friends once more.
