Westering Home - Celtic Woman

Westering home and a song in the air

Light in the eye and its good by to care

Laughter o love and a welcoming there

Isle of my heart my own land

Tell me a tale of the Orient gay

Tell me of riches that come from Cathay

Ah but it’s grand to be waken at day

And find oneself nearer to Islay

And it’s westering home with a song in the air

Light of me eye and it’s goodbye to care

Laughter and love are a welcoming there

Pride of my heart my own love

Where are the folks like the folks of the west

Canty and couthy and kindly, our best

There I would hie me and there I would rest

At home with my own folks in Islay

And it’s westering home with a song in the air

Light of me eye and it’s goodbye to care

Laughter and love are a welcoming there

Pride of my heart my own love

Now I’m at home and at home I do lay

Dreaming of riches that come from Cathay

I’ll hop a good ship and be on my way

And bring back my fortune to Islay

And it’s westering home with a song in the air

Light of me eye and it’s goodbye to care

Laughter and love are a welcoming there

Pride of my heart my own love
