My highlander is a sporting boy
Squarebuild, tall, strong
But he doesn’t come back home,
He was condemned to exile.
How will he come back to me,
Oh, how will he come back?
I’d give all the mountains
For the highlander to come back home.
The neighbors sleep quiet in their houses,
But I walk in the silent night,
Sat down and cry in the darkness
Because he’s not with me.
How will he come back to me,
Oh, how will he come back?
I’d give all the mountains
For the highlander to come back home.
Oh, I know, I know, who
I need to hang in a pine tree
So that the highlander, my friend,
May come back to the forests, the mountains and me.
How will he come back to me,
Oh, how will he come back?
I’d give all the mountains
For the highlander to come back home.
