Ten Thousand Miles - Altan

Fare you well, my own true love

Farewell for a while

I’m going away, but I’ll be back

If I go ten thousand miles

Ten thousand miles, my own true love

Ten thousand miles or more

And rocks may melt and the seas may burn

If I no more return

Don’t you see yon lonesome dove

Sitting on yon ivy tree

And she is weeping for her own true love

As I shall weep for mine

Oh, come back, my own true love

And stay a while with me

For if I had a friend all on this earth

You’ve been a friend to me

Fare you well, my own true love

Farewell for a while

I’m going away, but I’ll be back

If I go ten thousand miles
