Oh welcome, welcome emigrant
To my country, welcome home
Welcome, welcome emigrant
To the country that I love

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 did, my friend

So welcome, welcome emigrant
To my country, welcome home
Welcome, welcome emigrant
To the country that I love

I am proud, I am proud
I am proud of my forefathers and I say
About their courage
For they spoke a foreign language
And they labored with theirs hands
The same way you did, my friend

So welcome, welcome emigrant
To my country, welcome home
Welcome, welcome emigrant
To the country that I love
