Oh, my love, let me drift away
Oh, my love, let me drift away
Oh, my love, let me drift away
Darling, let me go home as you found me.
For if I should become a stranger
My clan and my brothers would chastise me
Singing songs for the fool I was, the fool I was
Oh, and it’s true that I loved you
Your beauty was striking, and your kisses were fair
But Islimore beckons me, and it doesn’t compare
Oh, my love, let me drift away
Oh, my love, let me drift away
Oh, my love, let me drift away
Darling, let me go home as you found me
