And angels beckon me
To the land o‘ the leal.
To the land o‘ the leal.
Oh! haud ye leal and true, Jean,
Your day its wearin thro, Jean,
And I‘ll welcome you
To the land of the leal.
Your day its wearin thro, Jean,
And I‘ll welcome you
To the land of the leal.
Now fare-ye-weel, my ain Jean,
This warld‘s cares are vain, Jean,
We‘ll meet and ay be fain
In the land o‘ the leal.
This warld‘s cares are vain, Jean,
We‘ll meet and ay be fain
In the land o‘ the leal.
Tho you leave me now in sorrow.
Tho you leave me now in sorrow,
Smiles may light our love to-morrow,
Doom‘d to part, my faithful heart
A gleam of joy from hope shall borrow.
Smiles may light our love to-morrow,
Doom‘d to part, my faithful heart
A gleam of joy from hope shall borrow.
Ah! ne‘er forget, when friends are near,
This heart alone is thine for ever.
Thou may‘st find those will love thee dear,
But not a love like mine, O never!
This heart alone is thine for ever.
Thou may‘st find those will love thee dear,
But not a love like mine, O never!
