“My heart ’s in the Highlands”

My heart ’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here; My heart ’s in the Highlands a-chasing the deer; 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 birthplace of valor, the country of worth; Wherever I wander, wherever I rove, The hills of the Highlands forever 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 heart ’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here; My heart ’s in the Highlands a-chasing the deer; Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe. My heart ’s in the Highlands wherever I go.
