well bill went to town in his sunday best and that’s where he saw her
it didn’t take him long to ask for the hand of young theodora
they rode their bikes to st. peter’s church on their wedding day
the guests were waiting at the ceremony, it started with a delay
coz bill lived far from town, and someone had to milk the cows

well farming was all a young bill knew the youngest of 15
a bond he shared with his brother grard would last a lifetime it seems
but when talk started up about a boat called the fairsea that sailed to foreign sh0r-s
grard asked bill “do you have my back? coz i’ve got yours”
3 weeks later it was planned, waving goodbye the the netherlands

they were sailing on the fairsea
sailing to a new country
sailing on the fairsea
sailing in 1953
4 weeks on a boat with nothing but a ray of hope

when they docked in melbourne town they were on their own
pyramid hill in victoria would be their new home
dora and the children crying all the way
and bill just sat there speechless from the news he got that day
his brothers family sent to queensland, it’s not what they planned

when sailing on the fairsea
sailing to a new country
sailing on the fairsea
sailing in 1953
4 weeks on a boat with nothing but a ray of hope

“why did you come to australia”? a young boy cries
as a mother sits and try to hide the tears that well in her eyes
“you shouldn’t have done this. i don’t like it here. as soon as you’re dead i’m going back to holland to play with my friends”
a mother thinking “what have we done”? tough words to hear from your eldest son

as time went by the family moved around from town to town
living off the land was the only choice when the wage was 8 to 10 pounds
but then late one night there came a knock at the door and when bill looked out he couldn’t believe what he saw
his brother standing on the step
he’d tracked them down in bunyip
and that night they laughed and cried
remembering the time

they were sailing on the fairsea
sailing to a new country
sailing on the fairsea
sailing in 1953
4 weeks on a boat with nothing but a ray of hope
