Lyrics
Far frae my hame I wander
But still my thoughts return
To my ain folk ower yonder
In the shieling by the burn
I see the cozy ingle
And the mist up in the brae
And joy and sadness mingle
As I list some auld world play
And it's all but I'm longing for my ain folk
Though they be but lowly, pair and plain folk
I am far beyond the sea
But my heart will ever be
At hame in dear auld Scotland wi' my ain folk
A bonnie lass is greetin'
Though she strives to stay the tears
And sweet will be our meetin'
After mony weary years
Soon his fond arms will enfold me
As I call him ever mine
Still abides the love I told he
In the days o' auld lang syne
And it's all but I'm longing for my ain folk
Though they be but lowly, pair and plain folk
I am far beyond the sea
But my heart will ever be
At hame in dear auld Scotland wi' my ain folk
