[00:35.370]In the year of '39
[00:37.870]assembled here the Volunteers.
[00:39.800]In the days when lands were few.
[00:44.370]Here the ship sailed out
[00:46.800]into the blue and sunny morning.
[00:49.690]The sweetest sight ever seen !
[00:54.260]" And the night followed day. "
[00:56.510]And the story tellers say :
[00:58.750]" That the score brave souls inside.
[01:03.800]For many a lonely day
[01:05.379]sailed across the milky seas.
[01:08.189]Ne'er looked back'
[01:09.789]never feared'
[01:09.820]never cried. "
[01:13.130]Don't you hear my call

[01:20.700]
[01:23.300]Write your letters in the sand
[01:24.800]for the day I take your hand
[01:26.930]in the land that our
[01:28.990]grandchildren knew.

[02:02.730]In the year of '39'
[02:05.790]came a ship in from the blue.
[02:07.360]The Volunteers came home that day.
[02:11.599]And they bring good news
[02:13.609]of a world so newly born'
[02:16.109]though their hearts so heavily weight.
[02:20.799]For the earth is old and grey'
[02:23.609]little darling we'll away
[02:26.299]but my love this cannot be.

[03:01.309]though you're many years away ?
[03:03.629]Don't you hear me calling you ?
[03:07.629]All your letters in the sand
[03:10.319]cannot heal me like your hand.
