One coming to.America! Two men meeting At the moment Of a journey For a moment In the darkness We're the same But what of the people Whose boundaries chafe I salute you, my friend Who marry so bravely And end up so safe May you find what you need I will be journeying here, my love As you go As you go Journeying Journeying Journeying On the sea On the sea On the sea We're two ships passing At a distance through the darkness One going from. Where is he going? He's a fool on a fool's journey You depart on a ship from a country like this Why on earth would you want to be leaving Was it something you lost that you suddenly miss Are you angry or possibly grieving Do you see in my face what you've lost, sir Are you moved by the death ship we sail upon Well, perhaps you're a man who's in search of his heart Journey on Journey on Two ships passing In the kinship Of the darkness- One going from. America is our shtetl Amekhaye khlebn Look.

Is that other ship going back home? No, no.
