john mcdermott - lachin y gair (dark loch nagar) lyrics

Loading...

away, ye gay landscapes, ye gardens of roses!
in you let the minions of luxury rove;
restore me the rocks where the snow-flake reposes,
though they are scared to freedom and love:
yet, caledonia; beloved are thy mountains,
round their white summits though elements war;
though cataracts foam ‘stead of smooth-flowing fountains,
i sigh for the valley of dark loch nagar.
ah! there my young footsteps in infancy wander’d;
my cap was the bonnet, my cloak was the plaid;
on chieftans long perish’d my memory ponder’d.
as daily i strode through the pine cover’d glade.
i sought not my home, till the day’s dying glory
gave praise to the rays of the bright polar star;
for fancy was cheer’d by traditional story,
disclosed by the natives of dark loch nagar.
