Oh boatman, na ho ro eile Oh boatman, na ho ro eile Oh boatman, na ho ro eile My blessings with you wherever you go Translation: Often I look from the highest hill Hoping to see the boatman Will you come today, or will you come tomorrow? And if you do not come at all, desolate will I be. Rhyming variation: I climb the mountain and scan the ocean For thee, my boatman, with fond devotion When shall I see thee? today? tommorow? Oh! do not leave me in lonely sorrow Oh my boatman, na ho ro eila Oh my boatman, na ho ro eila Oh my boatman, na ho ro eila My blessings with you wherever you go
