Way down upon the Swanee River,
Far, far away.
That's where my heart is turning ever.
That's where the old folks stay.
All up and down the whole creation,
Sadly I roam,
Still longing for the old plantation,
And for the old folks at home.
All the world is sad and dreary,
Everywhere I roam,
Oh! Lordy, how my heart grows weary,
Far from the old folks at home.
All 'round the little farm I wandered
When I was young,
Then many happy days I squandered,
Many a song I sung.
When I was playing with my brother
Happy was I.
Oh! take me to my kind old mother,
There let me live and die.
All the world is sad and dreary,
Everywhere I roam,
Oh! Lordy, how my heart grows weary,
Far from the old folks at home.
스와니강
머나먼 저곳 스와니 강물 그리워라 날 사랑하는 부모 형제 이 몸을 기다려 이 세상에 정처 없는 나그네 길 아 그리워라 나 살던 곳 멀고 먼 옛고향
정처도 없이 헤매이는 이 내 신세 언제나 나의 옛고향을 찾아나 가볼까 이 세상에 정처 없는 나그네 길 아 그리워라 나 살던 곳 멀고 먼 옛고향
