The sound of surf echoes within the adits Hark the gulls that seem to mock These mines are now but a curiosity A redundant miner, of little account Suddenly, before me I saw her So sweet that she was And when she spoke, my despair Took flight And when she offered me a shoulder My pride was gone When I felt useless, she soon comforted me In the Plen an Gwari by chance I encountered her As she was walking alone with her dog Boldly her name I enquired of her “Tamsin,” she replied to me Suddenly, before me I saw her So sweet that she was And when she spoke, my despair Took flight And when she offered me a shoulder My pride was gone When I felt useless, she soon comforted me What did my unemployment matter to me Now I had met Tamsin? And every evening we would meet I was a happy man, happy indeed The sound of surf echoes within the adits Listen to the skylark singing so sweetly Though these mines are now but a curiosity Look! Me and Tamsin are husband and wife Suddenly, before me I saw her So sweet that she was And when she spoke, my despair Took flight And when she offered me a shoulder My pride was gone When I felt useless, she soon comforted me Nothing matters anymore, Tamsin loves me
