Lyrics:
On the first day of January, 1892
They opened Ellis Island
And they let the people through
And the first to cross the threshold
Of that Isle of Hope and Tears
Was Annie Moore from Ireland
Who was only fifteen years
Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears
Isle of Freedom, Isle of Fears
But it's not the isle you left behind
That Isle of Hunger, Isle of Pain
Isle you'll never see again
But the Isle of Home is always on your mind
In a little bag she carried
All her past and history
And her dreams for the future
In the Land of Liberty
And courage is the passport
When your old world disappears
‘Cause there's no future in the past
When you're fifteen years
Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears
Isle of Freedom, Isle of Fears
But it's not the isle you left behind
That Isle of Hunger, Isle of Pain
Isle you'll never see again
But the Isle of Home is always on your mind
When they closed down Ellis Island in 1943
Seventeen million people
Had come there for sanctuary
And in springtime, when I came here
And I stepped onto its piers
I thought of how it must have been
When you're fifteen years
Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears
Isle of Freedom, Isle of Fears
But it's not the isle you left behind
That Isle of Hunger, Isle of Pain
Isle you'll never see again
But the Isle of Home is always on your mind
Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears
Isle of Freedom, Isle of Fears
But it's not the isle you left behind
That Isle of Hunger, Isle of Pain
Isle you'll never see again
But the Isle of Home is always on your mind
The Isle of Home is always on your mind
Super tolle Musik, die beruhigt und Balsam für die Seele. Dankeschön dafür. Gruss aus Niedersachsen Deutschland 🎉❤❤❤👍👍👍😊
Beautiful song 🎵 of Ireland's past of a young weary Irish lass of 15 who made her maiden voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to America with her hopes and dreams of making it in the new land of America 🇺🇸 If Annie Morrow is a true Irish character for this sad ballad song 🎵 about Ellis Island off the coast of New York and the Isle of Ireland ? Then how brave she must have been to travel all alone by herself to a new country across the Atlantic Ocean to America. 🍀 ☘️ 😊
Beautiful! (and just posted too!) Really enjoyed your tour stop at the Birchmere and especially this song. And very nice to meet and chat with you all after the show.
Absolutely stunning I'm in tears I'm a descendant of Irish forbears we didn't step on to Ellis Island because we were Potato famine Irish we crossed before in the 1840s still Ellis Island was what you describe for so many people from so many places thank you for this wonderful song edit wish I'd been able to make it to the Birchmere it's a lovely venue holds many happy memories
We will back in North America for Christmas
