Oh the sun rises bright in France And fair sets he But he has lost that look he had In his ain country A gladness comes tae many A sadness comes tae me As I look out o'er the ocean wide Tae ma ain country ♪ It's no ma ain ruin That saddens aye ma een But the love I left in Galloway Wi bonnie bairnies three Her hamly hearth burns bonnie And smiles my ain dear Annie But I left ma hert a'hint me In ma ain country ♪ The birds come back tae summer And the blossom tae the trees Oh but I'll come back oh never Tae ma ain country I'm loyal tae high heaven Which has aye been loyal tae me An I'll meet ye all again soon Frae ma ain country An I'll meet ye all again soon Frae ma ain country
