Song: The Last Farewell Artist: Roger Whittaker
There's a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbor Tomorrow for old England she sails Far away from your land of endless sunshine To my land full of rainy skies and gales And I shall be aboard that ship tomorrow Though my heart is full of tears at this farewell
I've heard there's a wicked war a-blazing And the taste of war I know so very well Even now I see the foreign flag a-raising Their guns on fire as we sail into hell I have no fear of death, it brings no sorrow But how bitter will be this last farewell
Though death and darkness gather all about me And my ship be torn apart upon the seas I shall smell again the fragrance of these islands And the heaving waves that brought me once to thee And should I return home safe again to England I shall watch the English mist roll through the dale
For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly More dearly than the spoken word can tell For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly More dearly than the spoken word can tell

Thanks for letting me know. Have a nice Sunday.
According to Wikipedia, Pocahontas she died in John Rolfe's arms(her husband) at the age of twenty-two. They had a son named Thomas Rolfe. Pocahontas was really a courageous woman who saved John Smith's life. In a letter to Queen Anne, Smith wrote, "she [Pocahontas] hazarded the beating out of her own brains to save mine; and not only that, but so prevailed with her father, that I was safely conducted to Jamestown."
Yes Becca, the Disney movie Pocahontas is one of my favorite. I've heard in real life Pocahantas sailed to England but died young. She is the ambassador of peace and love.
Enjoy your weekend(^O^☆♪
Thanks for your wonderful comments and warm greetings. I like Roger's baritone singing voice very much.
