Tae gang tae the heilands wi you sir

at leaving the green glens and woodlands
and streams of my ain country

Oh I'll show the red deer a roaming
on mountains where waves the tall pine
and as far as the bound of the red deer
ilk moorland and mountiain is mine

A thousand claymores I can muster
ilk blade and its bearer the same
and when their chieftain they rally
the gallant Argyll is my name

There's dancing and joy in the heilands
there's piping and gladness and glee
for Argyll has brought hame Leezie Lindsay
his bride and his darling tae be
