Buried in Our Lands Lyrics


We are far away but not forlorn

Our wives and our children across the waves

Long was the journey to bring us here

Fighting for freedom and our fate

Deep in these lands we sound our horns

Signal to raise the banners and our blades

We are far away but not forlorn

Our hearts left behind across the waves

Bring us back to our homeland

Sail us home across the waves

‘Cause we are not forgotten

We remain strong with our fate

We are far away but not forlorn

Our banners moving proudly with the wind

Never will we lay our dead to rest

Far from our freedom and our lands

The ravens that fly across our heads

An omen of victory ahead

We are far away but not forlorn

Our hearts left behind across the waves

Never shall we rest before we see

That our homeland is what we’ll reach

Hearts filled with remembrance

Return to what we left behind

Start- and ending place of our lives

Hearts filled with remembrance

We will not be buried far away

Not forgotten, all shall know our names

Buried in our lands, our hearts far away
