mouth music - (translation) i see the great mountains lyrics
oh, i see the great mountains
oh, i see the lofty mountains
oh i see the corries
i see the peaks under the mist
i see right away the place of my birth
i will be welcomed in a language which i understand
i will receive hospitality and love when i reach there
that i would not trade for tons of gold
i see woods there, i see thickets
i see fair, fertile fields there
i see the deer on the ground of the corries
shrouded in a garment of mist
high mountains with lovely slopes
folk abiding there who are customarily kind
light is my step when i go bounding to see them
and i will remain a while there willingly
composed by john cameron (ballachulish) in 1856
this tune evokes a mixture of emotions; it has often been played in funerals, including
john f.
kennedy’s in arlington, virginia, 1963
