The Old House - John McCormack (麦考梅克)

Lonely I wander through

scenes of my childhood

They bring back to memory

the happy days of yore

Gone are the old folk

the house stands deserted

No light in the window

no welcome at the door

Heres where the children

played games on the heather

Heres where they sailed

their wee boats on the burn

Where are they now

some are dead some have wandered

No more to their home

will the children return

Lonely the house now

and lonely the moorland

The children have scattered

the old folk are gone

Why stand I here like

a ghost or a shadow

This time I was movin tis time

I passed on
