My Heart's in the Highlands |
My Heart’s In The Highlands |
My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here, |
My heart’s in the Highlands a-chasing the deer — |
A-chasing the wild deer, and following the roe; |
My heart’s in the Highlands, wherever I go. |
Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North |
The birth place of Valour, the country of Worth; |
Wherever I wander, wherever I rove, |
The hills of the Highlands for ever I love. |
Farewell to the mountains high cover’d with snow; |
Farewell to the straths and green valleys below; |
Farewell to the forrests and wild-hanging woods; |
Farwell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods. |
My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here, |
My heart’s in the Highlands a-chasing the deer |
Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe; |
My heart’s in the Highlands, whereever I go. |
