how often haunting the highest hilltops
|
i scan the ocean i sail tae sea
|
wilt come tonight love wilt come tomorrow
|
wilt ever come love to comfort me?
|
|
fhear a bhata no horo eil'e
|
fhear a bhata no horo eil'e
|
fhear a bhata no horo eil'e
|
oh fare thee well love where e'er you be
|
|
they call thee fickle they call thee false one
|
and seek tae change me but all in vain
|
for thou art my dream a through the dark night
|
and every morning i scan the sea
|
|
fear a bhata no horo eil'e...
|
|
there's not a hamlet too well i know it
|
where you go wandering or set a while
|
but all the old folks you win wi' talking
|
and charm it's maidens with song and smile
|
|
fhear a bhata no horo eil'e...
|
|
do you remember the promise made me
|
the tartan plaidie the silken gown
|
the ring of gold with thy hair and portrait?
|
that gown and ring i will never know
|
|
fhear a bhata no horo eil'e...
