Here where the great hills fall away	A
To bays of silver sea	B
I hold within my hand to day	A
A wild thing strange to me	B
	-
Behind me is the deep green dell	C
Where lives familiar light	D
The leaves and flowers I know so well	C
Are gleaming in my sight	D
	-
And yonder is the mountain glen	E
Where sings in trees unstirred	D
By breath of breeze or axe of men	E
The shining satin bird	D
	-
The old weird cry of plover comes	F
Across the marshy ways	G
And here the hermit hornet hums	F
And here the wild bee strays	G
	-
No novel life or light I see	B
On hill in dale beneath	H
All things around are known to me	B
Except this bit of heath	H
	-
This touching growth hath made me dream	I
It sends my soul afar	J
To where the Scottish mountains gleam	I
Against the Northern star	J
	-
It droops this plant like one who grieves	K
But while my fancy glows	L
There is that glory on its leaves	K
Which never robed the rose	L
	-
For near its wind blown native spot	D
Were born by crags uphurled	D
The ringing songs of Walter Scott	D
That shook the whole wide world	D
	-
There haply by the sounding streams	M
And where the fountains break	N
He saw the darling of his dreams	M
The Lady of the Lake	N
	-
And on the peaks where never leaf	O
Of lowland beauty grew	P
Perhaps he met Clan Alpine's chief	O
The rugged Roderick Dhu	Q
	-
Not far perchance this heather throve	R
Above fair banks of ferns	S
From that green place of stream and grove	R
That knew the voice of Burns	S
	-
Against the radiant river ways	G
Still waves the noble wood	D
Where in the old majestic days	G
The Scottish poet stood	D
	-
Perhaps my heather used to beam	I
In robes of morning frost	D
By dells which saw that lovely dream	I
The Mary that he lost	D
	-
I hope indeed the singer knew	P
The little spot of land	D
On which the mountain beauty grew	P
That withers in my hand	D
	-
A Highland sky my vision fills	T
I feel the great strong North	U
The hard grey weather of the hills	T
That brings men children forth	U
	-
The peaks of Scotland where the din	V
And flame of thunders go	W
Seem near me with the masculine	X
Hale sons of wind and snow	W
	-
So potent is this heather here	Y
That under skies of blue	P
I seem to breathe the atmosphere	Z
That William Wallace knew	P
	-
And under windy mountain wall	A2
Where breaks the torrent loose	B2
I fancy I can hear the call	A2
Of grand old Robert Bruce	B2
