Cold winter days
The sky is blue,
I long to see
The morning dew.
I kneel down and touch
The earth, my land,
And run my fingers
Through the sand.
Snowdrops on the forest floor
A pathway to my own front door,
Birds are signing in the trees
Out on the moor a gentle breeze.
I long to see
My own home land,
From my own armchair
It would be grand.
The Hawthorn trees
When in full bloom,
High in the sky
A bright new moon.
A wish that makes
My dreams come true,
My homeland Scotland
Long over due.
