Westering
home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good bye to care
Laughter and love and a welcoming there
Isle of my heart my own one
Tell me of lands of the Orient gay
Speak of the riches and joys of Cathay
Ah but it’s grand to be waken that day
To find yourself nearer to Islay
Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good bye to care
Laughter and love and a welcoming there
Isle of my heart my own one
Where are the folk like the folk of the west
Canty and couthy and kindly the best
There I would hie me and there I would rest
At home with my own folk in Islay
Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good bye to care
Laughter and love and a welcoming there
Pride of my heart my own one
Now I’m at home and at home I do lay
Dreaming of riches that come from Cathay
I bought a good ship and I’ll be on my way
And bring back my fortune to Islay
Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good bye to care
Laughter and love and a welcoming there
Pride of my heart my own one
Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good bye to care
Laughter and love and a welcoming there
Pride of my heart my own one
Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good bye to care
Laughter and love and a welcoming there
Pride of my heart my own one
Pride of my heart my own one
