the soldier's adieu - robert tannahill lyrics
[verse 1]
the weary sun’s gane doun the west
the birds sit nodding on the tree
all nature now inclines for rest
but rest allow’d there’s nane for me :
the trumpet calls to war’s alarms
the rattling drum forbids my stay ;
ah ! nancy, bless thy soldier’s arms
for ere morn i will be far away
[verse 2]
i grieve to leave my comrades dear
i mourn to leave my native shore
to leave my aged parents here
and the bonnie lass whom i adore
but tеnder thoughts must now be hushed
whеn duty calls, i must obey ;
fate wills it so that part we must
and the morn i will be far away
[verse 3]
adieu! dear scotland’s sea*beat coast !
ye misty vales and mountains blue !
when on the heaving ocean tost
i’ll cast a wishful look to you
and now, dear nancy, fare*thee*weel !
may providence thy guardian be !
and in the camp, or in the fiel
my constant thoughts shall turn to thee
