My Heart's in the Highlands Songtext
von Arvo Pärt

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 forests and wild-hanging woods
Farewell 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 wherever I go
