Westering Home Songtext
von The Corries

Westering home and a song in the air
Light in the eye and it′s goodbye to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Isle o′ my heart, my own one

Tell me o' lands o' the Orient gay
Speak o′ the riches and joys o′ Cathay
Nay, but it's grand to be wakin′ each day
To find yourself nearer to Islay


And it's westering home and a song in the air
Light in the eye and it′s goodbye to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Isle o′ my heart, my own one

Where are the folk like the folk o' the West?
Canty and coothy and kindly the best
There I would hie me and there I would rest
At hame wi' my ain folk in Islay

And it′s westering home and a song in the air
Light in the eye and it′s goodbye to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Isle o′ my heart, my own one


And it's westering home and a song in the air
Light in the eye and it′s goodbye to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Isle o′ my heart, my own one
