The sun was setting in the west The birds were singing on evry tree All nature seemed inclined to rest But still there was no rest for me (Chorus) Farewell to Nova Scotia, the seabound coast Let your mountains dark and dreary be And when I am far away on the briny oceans tossed Will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me? I grieve to leave my native land I grieve to leave my comrades all And my aged parents whom I always held so dear And the bonnie, bonnie lass that I do adore The drums they do beat and the wars do alarm The captain calls, we must obey So farewell, farewell to Nova Scotias charms For its early in the morning I am far, far away I have three brothers and they are at rest Their arms are folded on their breast But a poor simple sailor just like me Must be tossed and driven on the dark blue sea

Chorus

D7

D7

Em

D7

Let us pause in lifes pleasures and count its many tears, While we all sup sorrow with the poor: Theres a song that will linger forever in our ears; Oh! Hard times, come again no more. Chorus: Its the song, the sigh of the weary; Hard times, hard times come again no more; Many days you have lingered around my cabin door. Oh! Hard times, come again no more. While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay There are frail forms fainting at the door; Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say. Oh! Hard times, come a gain no more. Theres a pale drooping maiden who toils her life away With a worn heart whose better days are oer. Though her voice would be merry, its sighing all the day. Oh! Hard times, come a gain no more. Its a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave, Its a wail that is heard upon the shore; Its a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave. Oh! Hard times, come a gain no more.

Je ne sais pourquoi elle allait danser Saint Jean au musette mais quand ce gars lui a pris un baiser elle frissonnait, tait chipe Refrain 1 Comment ne pas perdre la tte serr par des bras audacieux car lon croit toujours aux doux mots damour quand ils sont dits avec les yeux Refrain 2 Elle qui laimait tant elle le trouvait le plus beau de Saint Jean elle restait grise sans volont sous ses baisers Sans plus rflchir, elle lui donnait le meilleur de son tre beau parleur chaque fois quil mentait elle le savait, mais elle laimait

Refrain 1 Refrain 2 Mais hlas, Saint Jean comme ailleurs un serment nest quun leurre elle tait folle de croire au bonheur et de vouloir garder son coeur Refrain 1 Elle qui laimait tant, elle le trouvait le plus beau de Saint Jean, elle restait grise sans volont sous ses baisers Elle qui laimait tant... Il ne laime plus cest du pass nen parlons plus

Refrain B B 7 E B

F7

Amis, partons sans bruit; La pche sera bonne La lune qui rayonne clairera la nuit. Il faut quavant laurore Nous soyons de retour Pour sommeiller encore Avant quil soit grand jour. REFRAIN: Partons, la mer est belle; Embarquonsnous, pcheurs, Guidons notre nacelle, Ramons avec ardeur. Aux mts hissons les voiles, Le ciel est pur et beau, Je vois briller ltoile Qui guide les matelots!

Ainsi chantait mon pre Lorsquil quitta le port. Il ne sattendait gure y trouver la mort. Par les vents, par lorage, Il fut surpris soudain, Et dun cruel naufrage Il subit le destin. REFRAIN Je nai plus que ma mre Qui ne possde rien; Elle est dans la misre, Je suis son seul soutien. Ramons, ramons bien vite, Je laperois lbas, Je la vois qui minvite En me tendant les bras.

I am a little beggarman a beggin I have been For three score or more in this little Isle of Green Im known from the Liffey, down to Segue Im known by the name of old Johnny Dhu Of all the trades thats goin sure beggin is the best For when a man is tired he can sit down and rest Beg for his dinner he has nothin else to do Only cut around the corner with his old rigadoo I slept in a barn way down at Currabawn A wet night came on and I slept until the dawn With holes in the roof and the rain coming through The rats and the cats they were playing peekaboo When who should awaken but the woman of the house With her white spotty apron and her calico blouse She began to frighten and I said "Boo! Arrah dont be afraid maam, its only Johnny Dhu" I met a little flaxyhaired girl one day "Good morning, little flaxyhaired girl", I did say "Good morning, little beggarman, ahow do you do With your rags and your bags and your old rigadoo?" "Ill buy a pair of leggings, a collar and a tie And a nice young lady Ill fetch bye and bye Ill buy a pair of goggles and colour them blue And and oldfashioned lady, I will make her too" Over the road with my pack on my back Over the fields with my great heavy sack With holes in my shoes and my toes peeping through Singing "Skinnymarinkadoodleo and old Johnny Dhu I must be going to bed, for its getting late at night The fires all raked and out goes the light So now youve heard the story of me old rigadoo "Its goodbye and God be with you", said old Johnny Dhu

Its a damn tough life, full of toil and strife, we whalermen undergo, And we wont give a damn when the gales are done how hard the winds did blow, For were homeward bound from the Arctic grounds with a good ship taut and free, And we wont give a damn when we drink our rum with the girls from old Maui. CHORUS: Rolling down to old Maui, me boys, rolling down to old Maui, Were homeward bound from the Arctic grounds, rolling down to old Maui. Once more we sail with the northerly gales through the ice and wind and rain, Them coconut fronds, them tropical shores, we soon shall see again; Six hellish months weve passed away on the cold Kamchatka sea, But now were bound from the Arctic grounds, rolling down to old Maui. CHORUS Once more we sail with the Northerly gales, towards our island home, Our whaling done, our mainmast sprung, and we aint got far to roam; Our stunsls bones is carried away, what care we for that sound, A living gale is after us, thank God were homeward bound.

CHORUS How soft the breeze through the island trees, now the ice is far astern, Them native maids, them tropical glades, is awaiting our return; Even now their big brown eyes look out, hoping some fine day to see, Our baggy sails, running fore the gales, rolling down to old Maui. CHORUS And now were anchored in the bay with the Kanakas all around With chants and soft aloha ois, they greet us homeward bound; And now ashore well have some fun, well paint them beaches red; Awaken in the arms of an island maid with a big fat aching head. CHORUS
