CAway, ye gay landscapes, ye gardens o' roses.
InF you let the Cminions of luxury rGove.
RestoCre me the rocks where snowflake reposes
If stFill they are sacrCed to freGedom and lCove
BrCave Caledonia, Fdear are thyC mountains,
Round their white summits though elementGs war.
Tho’C cataracts roar 'stead of smooth flowing fountains,
I siCgh for the valleys o' daGrk LochnaCgarr.
AhC, there my young footsteps in infancy wandered.
MyF cap was my bConnet, my cloak was my plGaid.
On chCieftains long perished my memory lingered
As daFily I strayed thrCough the piGne covered glCade.
I sCought not my home till the daFys dying gloCry.
Gave place to the rays o' the bright polar sGtar
My fanCcy was cheered by the bold martial story
As toCld by the sons o' Dark LoGchnagar. C
YeCars have rolled on, Lochnagar, since I left you
YeFars must roll on erCe I see you again G
ThougCh Nature of verdure and flowers bereft you
Yet sFtill art thou dearCer than AlbGion's plain C
EnCgland! thy beauties are tame Fand domesticC
To one who has roved on the mouGntains afar
Oh forC the crags that are wild and majestic
The stCeep frowning glories o' wiGld LochnaCgar.
ICll starred now the brave did no vision foreboding.
TeFll you that fate hCad forsaken our causGe
Yet wCere you destined to die at Culloden?
ThoFugh victory crowneCd not your fGall with applCause.
YetC were you happy in death's eaFrthly slumbeCr
Tae sleep wi’ your clan in the caves of BrGaemar
The piCbroch resounds tae the piper's loud numbers
Your Cdeeds on the echoes o’ Gdark LochCnagar.
PLAYED SLOWLY
BrCave Caledonia deFar are thy mounCtains
I sigh for the vaClley o' darGk LochnagCar
Repeat fading
The Csteep sounding glories of daGrk LochnaCgar
The Csteep sounding glories of daGrk LochnaCgar
The Csteep sounding glories of daGrk LochnaCgar
