Back to Highlander's Farewell (3)
HIGHLANDER'S FAREWELL [3], THE. AKA and see "Highlander's Lament (The)." Scottish, Air. The first half of the tune is derived from "Lass of Patie's Mill (The)." Hogg's (1821) version begins:
O where shall I gae seek my bread?
Or where shall I gae wander?
O where shall I gae hide my head?
For here I'll bide nae langer.
The seas may row, the winds may blow,
And swathe me round in danger;
My native land I must forego,
And roam a lonely stranger.
