The Corries - The Highlander's Farewell lyrics

Artist: The Corries

album: Scotland Will Flourish


O wha will I gae seek my bread
Wha will I gae wander
Wha will I gae hide my head
For here I'll bide nae longer
The seas may roll the winds may blow
Swathe me round in danger
But Scotland I maun now forgo
And roam a lonely stranger
The glen that was my father's own
By his must be forsaken
The house that was my father's home
Is leveled tae the bracken
Ochon, ochon, the glory's gone
Stole by a ruthless reaver
Our hands are on the broad claymore
But might is gone forever
And thou my prince my injured prince
Thy people had disowned thee
Have hunted thee and driven thee hence
We ruined chiefs around thee
Though hard beset when I forget
Thy fate young hapless rover
This breaking heart will cease to beat
And all it's griefs be over
Farewell, farewell dear Caledon
Land of the Gael nae longer
Strangers trod thy glory on
Wi' treachery and stronger
The brave and just lie in the dust
On ruin's brink they quiver
Heaven's pitying eye is closed on thee
Adieu adieu forever
