Song language: English
Whither Must I Wander |
| Home no more home to me, whither must I wander? |
| Hunger my driver, I go where I must |
| Cold blows the winter wind over hill and heather: |
| Thick drives the rain and my roof is in the dust |
| Loved of wise men was the shade of my roof-tree |
| The true word of welcome was spoken in the door |
| Dear days of old with the faces in the firelight |
| Kind folks of old, you come again no more |
| Spring shall come, come again, calling up the moorfowl |
| Spring shall bring the sun and the rain, bring the bees and flowers; |
| Red shall the heather bloom over hill and valley |
| Soft flow the stream through the even-flowing hours |
| Fair the day shine as it shone on my childhood |
| Fair shine the day on the house with open door |
| Birds come and cry there and twitter in the chimney |
| But I go for ever and come again no more |
