Far over the forth I look to the north
But what is the north, wi its highlands tae me?
The south, nor the east, gi ease tae my breast
It's a far foreign land, o'er the wild rolling sea

His father, he frowned on the love of his boyhood
And oh his proud mother looked cauld upon me
But he ay follaed me tae ma hame in the sheelin
And the Hills o' Breadalbane rang wild wi our glee

A' the lang summer days amang the heather and the bracken
And oh for the __ o' his bonny blue ee
But little I kenned that the wild western ocean
Would be rolling this day between ma laddie and me

We trysted our love in the cairn on the mountain
The deer and roe stood bridesmaidens tae me
And my love's trysting glass was the clear crystal fountain
What then was the world tae ma laddie and me

So I'll look tae the north as I look o'er the forth
But what is the north, wi its highlands tae me?
For the lad I loo best is far in the west
And he's seeking a hame for ma bairnie and me
