Westering Home lyrics

Westering home with a song in the air

Light in the eye and its goodbye to care

Laughter o' love and a welcoming there

Isle of my heart my own land

Tell me of lands of the Orient gay

Speak of the riches that come from Cathay

Ah but it's grand to be woken at day

And find yourself nearer to Islay

Westering home with a song in the air

Light in the eye and its goodbye to care

Laughter o' love and a welcoming there

Light of my heart my own land

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 goodbye to care

Laughter o' love and a welcoming there

Light of my heart my own land

Now I'm at home and at home I do lay

Dreaming of riches that come from Cathay

I'll board 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 goodbye to care

Laughter o' love and a welcoming there

Light of my heart my own land

Westering home with a song in the air

Light in the eye and its goodbye to care

Laughter o' love and a welcoming there

Light of my heart my own land

Westering home with a song in the air

Light in the eye and its goodbye to care

Laughter o' love and a welcoming there

Light of my heart my own land

Westering home with a song in the air

Light in the eye and its goodbye to care

Laughter o' love and a welcoming there

Light of my heart my own land

Light of my heart my own land
