Born you are in a place
So far from where you are
You come back, look around
Find out, no one’s in town
You once yearned to be back
With your friends, your family
Alas! You had to move away
They said, there was no other way
You miss everyone, oh you do!
You come back, hoping they’ll recognise you
Some do, but not much
You feel sad, your hands you clutch
'Tis so heart-breaking that this happened
That when you returned you were so saddened
The people who once loved you
Either left, or had other things to do
An immigrant's tale is so sad
So much longing, may I add
A feeling of home is never created
Though, eternally you would have waited
