The High Road











Katalin is off exploring Scotland on a tour this half-term, so this poem is written specially for her.

The High Road

My bonnie lass, is over the sea
Off to Edinburgh city she goes
Send a postcard, don’t forget me
And don’t forget warmer clothes

My bonnie lass, up to the Highlands
And down by the Lochs, she goes
Take me a photo, love in your hands
And enjoy the mountains of snows

My bonnie lass, off now to Skye
The island of magic and dreams
The Sea Eagle soars up with cry
Oh, sing me a song by the streams

My bonnie lass, journeying afar
Come back, my wandering star
