Text: Levellers. The Lowlands Of Holland.

The life that I have chosen
And there will be content
And the salt sea shall be frozen
Before that I repent

Repent I shall not ever
Until the day I die
For the lowlands of Holland
Have claimed my destiny

I look out onto the rolling sea
But there'll be no easy ride
It's enough to break your mind and will
There's many times we've tried

We cried together but we fought
We staked all to be free
For the lowlands of Holland
Have claimed my destiny

So you feel the wind in your hair
As we leave the old country
With seven score friends, here by our side
To keep us company

'Cos there's many more we've left behind
And some we'll never see
'Cos the lowlands of Holland
Have claimed my destiny
