Buffy Sainte-Mary

Transposer:

[Chorus] Oh welcome welcome emigrante To my country welcome home Welcome welcome emigrante To the country that I love [Verse 1] I am proud I am proud I am proud of my forefathers and I say They built this country And they came from far away To a land they didn’t know The same way you do my friend [Chorus] Oh welcome welcome emigrante To my country welcome home Welcome welcome emigrante To the country that I love [Verse 2] I am proud I am proud I am proud of my forefathers and I sing About their courage For they spoke a foreign language And they labored with their hands The same way you do my friend [Chorus] Oh welcome welcome emigrante To my country welcome home Welcome welcome emigrante To the country that I love [Verse 3] I am proud I am proud I am proud of my forefathers and I sing About their patience For they work they did was lowly And they dirtied up their clothes For they spoke a foreign language And they labored with their hands And they came from far away To a land they didn’t know The same way you do my friend [Chorus] Oh welcome welcome emigrante To my country welcome home Welcome welcome emigrante To the country that I love[

Cette chanson célèbre la fierté des immigrants et leur contribution à la création d'un pays. Elle évoque le parcours de ceux qui ont quitté leur terre natale, portant avec eux des rêves et des espoirs pour un avenir meilleur. Les paroles honorent les ancêtres qui, eux aussi, ont dû faire face à l'inconnu, travailler dur et s'adapter à une nouvelle vie, tout en gardant vivante leur identité culturelle. L'accueil chaleureux réservé aux nouveaux arrivants ressent l'importance de l'unité et de la solidarité, rappelant que chacun a une place dans cette nation qu'ils appellent "maison".
