You may climb the mountain's high
you may sail the oceans deep
you may walk the wide lands
but you'll never see, no you'll never see
The gentle hills, wooded and green,
virgin slopes, blooming with beauty,
the green fairy dancing for me,
fulfilling me with harmony
You may climb the mountain's high
you may sail the oceans deep
you may walk the wide lands
but you'll never see, no you'll never see
Where the world can do me no harm,
nor trouble my peace, my tranquillity
where it's safe, warm and cosy
this is the place, where I'm free
But if you'd believe in true love,
in a tune, not fame nor fortune.
Close your eyes, come with me
and then you'll see, and you'll see
We'll climb the mountain's hight
we'll sail the oceans deep
and we'll walk the wide lands
if you'd believe in me, you might see
Now it's time to face the world
Goodbye soft hills, goodbye blue river deep
goodbye my fairy homeland
even when I'm gone, I'm still your son
We'll climb the mountain's hight
we'll sail the oceans deep
and we'll walk the wide lands
if you'd believe in me, you might see
