When day is dawning I love to be here When the fishing-boats sail home again Though the wages are low Still they come and they go I wonder, for how many years

 

This is my home-town The place I was born I would fight for with all of my heart It would be such a shame If it stopped being the same I wonder if hope's not in vain

 

I see the harbour light It means home to me You are my paradise So close to the sea God's own creation of nature and men Your inspiration made me what I am

 

Wherever I am Wherever I go I see fishing-boats bound for the sea Though the wages are low Let them come, let them go Let them sail on for many years

 

I see the harbour light It means home to me You are my paradise So close to the sea God's own creation of nature and men Your inspiration made me what I am

 

I see the harbour light It means home to me You are my paradise So close to the sea God's own creation of nature and men Your inspiration made me what I am
