julia migenes & zero mostel - far from the home i love lyrics

Loading...

[tevye, spoken]
so you are leaving your home to join that hero of yours. but why won’t you tell me where he is?

[hodel, spoken]
it is far, papa, terribly far. he was arrested. he is in a settlement in siberia.

[tevye, spoken]
siberia! and he asked you to join him in that frozen wasteland, and marry him there?

[hodel, spoken]
no, papa, he did not ask me to go. i want to go.

[tevye, spoken]
but hodel, baby…

[hodel, spoken]
but papa…

(sung)
how can i hope to make you understand
why i do what i do?
why i must travel to a distant land
far from the home i love

once i was happily content to be
as i was, where i was
close to the pеople who are close to mе
here in the home i love
who could see that a man would come
who would change the shape of my dreams?
helpless now i stand with him
watching older dreams grow dim

oh, what a melancholy choice this is
wanting home, wanting him
closing my heart to every hope but his
leaving the home i love

there where my heart has settled long ago
i must go, i must go
who could imagine i’d be wandering so
far from the home i love?
yet there with my love, i’m home

[tevye, spoken]
well, give him my regards, this moses of yours. i always thought he was a good man. tell him i rely on his honor to treat my daughter well. tell him that.

[hodel, spoken]
papa, god alone knows when we shall see each other again.

[tevye, spoken]
then we will leave it in his hands.

[hodel]
there where my heart has settled long ago
i must go, i must go
who could imagine i’d be wandering so
far from the home i love?
yet there with my lover, i’m home
