Lyrics
Once again we must be gone Moving onward to the New World! Shall our hopes be answered there? Is that land so good and fair? In that land across the sea When our quest at last is ended Then all our fortunes shall be mended We shall dwell there, free of every care, happy we! Stripped though we are Of our possessions, my dear We shall go far Through our professions, my dear If this New World Has plenty of gallants We'll right our balancе Using our talents, my dear Go now and save Montеvideo, Candide! Faithful and brave Go on your way, O Candide! You must deter The heathen invader Drive out the raider Like a crusader, Candide I was in a funk My confidence was failing I was feeling sunk But once again I'm sailing! Yes, go, Candide Do as I say: On your way, O Candide! I was depressed and my spirits were failing All's for the best now because we are sailing, sailing! Shall my hopes for the first time Be answered in that New World? Oh, farewell, Old World, farewell! Farewell, Old World! Ah, farewell, Old World! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! In that land across the sea When our quest at last is ended All our fortunes shall be mended Though we're deprived Of our possessions, my dear We have survived Through our professions, my dear If the New World Has plenty of gallants Go now and save Montevideo, Candide! Faithful and brave Go on your way, O Candide! You must deter The heathen invader! Ah, I was in a funk My confidence was failing I was feeling sunk But once again I'm sailing! Sailing! Sailing! Farewell to the old! Farewell to the old! We're bound for the realms of gold! Farewell to distress! Farewell to distress! All hail to our happiness! My heart's full of hope! My heart's full of hope! I'm sure we can cope, my dear! With many a deed With many a deed! With many a deed, Candide!
