My Heart's In The Highlands My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here, My heart's in the Higlands a-chasing the deer A-chasing the wild deer and following the roe; My heart's in the Highlands, wherever I go. Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North- The birth place of Valour, the country of Worth; Wherever I wander, wherever I rove, The hills of the Hihglands for ever I love. Farewell to the mountains high cover'd with snow; Farewell to the straths and green valleys below; Farewell to the forrests and wild-hanging woods; Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods. My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here, My heart's in the Highlands a-chaing the deer- Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe; My heart's in the Highlands,where ever I go. O, When I cross over rainbow bridge, Will I see my beloved Highlands, Where my ancestor call home. O, Will I see them on the hill tops waiting for me, To be in the chase to take back these hills we call home. Mamie Angus Gypsy Hilary Piper Holly
