Farewell you braes o' Sutherland,
I'll ne'er see you no more
For I must take a strangers path
and leave my native shore
My friends and my acquaintances
I'll give you now my hand
For I will ne'er be back again on
the Braes o' Sutherland
To the ridges of the old Ben More
Ill bid a fond farewell
To Rosehall and to Bonar Bridge
I'll leave my heart with you
To the rolling bands o' the
Oykel and to Dornoch's gentle sands
I wish you well my comrades
there on the Braes of Sutherland
Farewell you roads to Spinningdale
this chapter now will close
To the ghosts that thay lie at
Carbisdale and the downfall of Montrose
To Ardgay and to Invershin, no
more I'll walk your sands
For I have to leave my
memories on the Braes of Sutherland
I now will leave my native
home for the shores of America
My love I leave behind me
now, I can no longer stay
The orders from the castle come
by the Duke's right hand
I fear that I must leave thee
there on the Braes of Sutherland
I'll ne'er see you no more
For I must take a strangers path
and leave my native shore
My friends and my acquaintances
I'll give you now my hand
For I will ne'er be back again on
the Braes o' Sutherland
To the ridges of the old Ben More
Ill bid a fond farewell
To Rosehall and to Bonar Bridge
I'll leave my heart with you
To the rolling bands o' the
Oykel and to Dornoch's gentle sands
I wish you well my comrades
there on the Braes of Sutherland
Farewell you roads to Spinningdale
this chapter now will close
To the ghosts that thay lie at
Carbisdale and the downfall of Montrose
To Ardgay and to Invershin, no
more I'll walk your sands
For I have to leave my
memories on the Braes of Sutherland
I now will leave my native
home for the shores of America
My love I leave behind me
now, I can no longer stay
The orders from the castle come
by the Duke's right hand
I fear that I must leave thee
there on the Braes of Sutherland
