In the year of 39 assembled here the Volunteers

In the days when lands were few

Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn

The sweetest sight ever seen

And the night followed day and the storytellers say

That the score brave souls inside

For many a lonely day sailed across the milky seas

Never looked back， never feared， never cried

Dont you hear my call though youre many years away

Dont you hear me calling you

Write your letters in the sand for the day I take your hand

In the land that our grandchildren knew

In the year of 39 came a ship in from the blue

The Volunteers came home that day

And they bring good news of a world so newly born

Though their hearts so heavily weigh

For the earth is old and grey

Little darling， well away， but my love this cannot be

For so many years have gone， though Im older but a year

Your mothers eyes from your eyes cry to me

All your letters in the sand

Cannot heal me like your hand

For my life， still ahead， pity me
