Farewell to ye, hills and green valleys and the woods that spontaneously spring Where the feathered tribes of each species and the cuckoo melodious does sing All these beauties I'm parting this evening, with sorrow I feel no disgrace, No wonder it grieves me to leave you and part from you, lovely Glenshesk.
I am come to the age of discerning, I am taught for to keep the commands We each get our own gifts freely but I'm bound for a far foreign land.
