Capercaillie - Dean Cadalan - Servant To The Slave lyrics

Leaving for an unknown shore With every breeze just like a sigh The sea is deep with tears of those before With feelings like the seabirds' cry It gently took me by the hand Across the ocean blue And placed me in a foreign land Far away from you No more the ancient conversation Replies with just a nod No fiddle plays a lamentation No slowly burning sod No smiles await on Ellis Fears of the unknown Only tired hearts of the countless People taken from their homes To be drawn across an ocean This crooked path we pave On earth's eternal motion To be a servant to the slave Hi ri ri ri o ro eile Hi ri ri ri o Hi ri ri ri o ro eile Hi ri ri ri o Wait and yearn to be released As the ground beneath you heaves Turn your gaze to the east Reflect on what the cold wake leaves To be drawn across an ocean This crooked path we pave On earth's eternal motion To be a servant to the slave To be drawn across an ocean This crooked path we pave On earth's eternal motion To be a servant to the slave
