How can I desert you How to tell you why Coachmen hold the horses Stay, I pray you Let me have a moment Let me say goodbye
To bridge and river Forest and waterfall Orchard, sea, and sky Harsh and sweet And bitter to leave it all I’ll bless my homeland Till I die
How to break the tide We have shed our tears And shared our sorrows Though the scars remain And tears will never dry I’ll bless my homeland Till I die
Never to return Finally breaking free You are all I know You have raised me How to turn away How to close the door How to go where I have Never gone before
How can I desert you How to tell you why Coachmen hold the horses Stay, I pray you Let me have a moment Let me say goodbye
Harsh and sweet And bitter to leave it all I’ll bless my homeland Till I die
I’ll bless my homeland I’ll bless my homeland I’ll bless my homeland Till I die
