Chris Thomson lived in the rural Waikato district of New Zealand and wrote this in 1972. Young men in New Zealand in those times led a life of materialistic plenty but cultural emptiness - work, big car, girls, beer, tv - so they went on an OE to the British Isles that their great-grand parents migrated from. And when they returned they realized that their self identity, their soul perhaps lay somewhere in that faraway land.

Beautiful! Did Robin write this himself or is it a traditional Irish song?
