Lyrics:
Don't ask me where I come from, my hometown is far away
Why roam, roam far away
Roam, for the birds that fly in the sky
For the streams that flow gently in the mountains, for the wide grasslands
Roam far away, roam
And also and again, for the olive trees in my dreams
Olive trees, don't ask me where I come from
My homeland is far away, why wander
Why wander far away, for the olive trees of my dreams
Don't ask me where I come from, my homeland is far away
Why wander, wander far away
Wander
