Lyrics:
When the quiet evening comes And the village softly lies Twinkling in the shadow of the mountain When the twilight's muffled drums Play tattoos to the skies And the heavens close their eyes I'll be gone. When the fisher folds his net, Makes his craft secure, And gazes to the west for signs of weather When he thinks of his table set, His children at the door, As he plods along the shore I'll be gone. When the merchant draws his shade, Counts the day’s receipts, And smiles, recalling bits of idle gossip. When the entries all are made In the ledger's tidy sheets As he shuffles down the streets I'll be gone. Tis pretty but is chains And I must be free. So fare-thee-well ye full contented fellow No quiet life for me, no home, no family, Now and endlessly I'll be gone.
