Cypress Tree |
Long I’ve roamed lands which are not mine |
Admired Cappadocia, enjoyed Greek wine |
Tea at the Bosporus, travelled the river Rhine |
Heard the Lorelei sing, a song divine |
My grave is easily found |
And there I shall gladly be |
Buried in the shadow |
Beneath my cypress tree |
My spirit travelled The Highlands |
The North Sea taught me humbleness |
My mind got drunk by the beauty of France |
In Bretagne and Ireland a Celtic dance |
My grave is easily found |
And there I shall gladly be |
Buried in the shadow |
Beneath my cypress tree |
No trace of Helen at the remains of Troy |
But her glorious beauty shining through |
On many a gracious peasant girl |
In picturesque villages far below |
Winds of Galicia, mountains of Spain |
Portuguese valleys, English domain |
Skandinavia, Alexandria |
Passion for wandering, impossible to restrain |
My grave is easily found |
And there I shall gladly be |
Buried in the shadow |
Beneath my cypress tree |
When my time on earth is over |
And my journey has come to an end |
Remembering the white cliffs of Dover |
Or the breeze of our Lowlands |
Of our Lowlands |
