Fiddler's Green - Highland Road
текст песни

Fife was a shadow across the Forth
As the Granton boat pulled out
Over the sea and the solid earth
The mist lay all about
And a rising wind from the Isle of
May o'er the ruffled waters strode
And blew us a clear October day
To ride on the Highland Road

There's a winding road from Glenfarg to
The mouth of the river Tay
The mountains beckon beyond Dunkeld to
Lead us on our way
Now Killicrankie's famous Pass
A battle lost and won
From the old enchanted Atholl lands
Grim heart of Caledon

The Highland Road's been sung before
And will be sung again
As long as singers give thanks for good
In the way of honest men
Let him who will be contrary
The wise man will agree
And sing again the Highland Road
The Highland Road for me

Now the Highland Road is a rugged road
From the Tay to the Northern shore
A man may rise in Edinburgh
Town and rest in Aviemore
Now here's to the railroad running north and
The day that gave it due
From the greying spires of the ancient town
To the moon of the Lairig Gru
