My Heart’s in the Highlands
(Adapted from the poem by Robert Burns)
My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My heart's in the Highlands chasing wild deer -
A-chasing wild deer, and following the roe;
My heart's in the Highlands, wherever I may rove.
Chorus:
And I say hey ah-ah-hey yah
I say hey ah-ah-hey yah
And I say hey ah-ah-hey yah
And I say hey ah-ah-hey yah
Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North
That birth place of Valour, that country of Worth;
Wherever I may wander, wherever I may rove,
The hills of the Highlands for ever I will love.
Chorus
Farewell to the mountains high cover'd with snow;
Farewell to the straths and green valleys below;
Farewell to the forests with wild-hanging woods;
And Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods.
