My hearts in the Highlands my heart is not here;
My hearts in the Highlands a-chasing the deer;
A-chasing the wild-deer and following the roe
My hearts in the Highlands wherever I go.
Farewell to the mountains high covered with snow;
Farewell to the straths and green valleys below;
Wherever I wander wherever I rove
The hills of the Highlands for ever I love.
Farewell to the mountains high covered with snow;
Farewell to the straths and green valleys below;
Farewell to the forests and wild-hanging woods;
Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods.
My hearts in the Highlands my heart is not here;
My hearts in the Highlands a-chasing the deer;
A-chasing the wild-deer and following the roe
My hearts in the Highlands wherever I go.
