Refrain i
You may climb the mountains high.
You may sail the oceans deep.
You may walk the wide lands.
But youll never see, no youll never see
Gentle hills wooded and green.
Virgin slopes blooming with beauty.
The green fairy dancing for me
fulfilling me with harmony.
Refrain i
You may climb the mountains high.
You may sail the oceans deep.
You may walk the wide lands.
But youll never see, no youll never see
Where the world can do me no harm
nor trouble my peace, my tranquillity.
Where its safe, warm and cosy.
This is the place where Im free.
But if you believe in true love,
in a tune, not fame nor fortune.
Close your eyes, come with me.
And then youll see, and then youll see
Refrain ii
Well climb the mountains high.
Well sail the oceans deep.
Well walk the wide lands.
If you believe in me, youll see.
Well climb the mountains high.
Well sail the oceans deep.
Well walk the wide lands.
If you believe in me, you will see.
Bridge
Now its time to face the world.
Goodbye soft hills.
Goodbye blue river deep.
Goodbye my fairy homeland
even though Im gone Im still your son.
Refrain ii
Well climb the mountains high.
Well sail the oceans deep.
Well walk the wide lands.
If you believe in me, youll see.
