My heart’s in the Highlands.

words by Robert Burns music by Ross Harris MY HEART IS IN THE HIGHLAND My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here, My heart’s in the Highlands 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 Highlands 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; Farwell 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, whereever I go.
