Дина Мария Крейк (Dinah Maria Craik) Текст оригинала на английском языке Coming Hame THE LIFT is high and blue, And the new moon glints through The bonnie corn-stooks o’ Strathairly; My ship ’s in Largo Bay, And I ken it weel,—the way Up the steep, steep brae of Strathairly. When I sailed ower the sea,— A laddie bold and free,— The corn sprang green on Strathairly; When I come back again, ’T is an auld man walks his lane, Slow and sad through the fields o’ Strathairly. Of the shearers that I see, Ne’er a body kens me, Though I kent them a’ at Strathairly; And this fisher-wife I pass, Can she be the braw lass That I kissed at the back of Strathairly? O, the land ’s fine, fine! I could buy it a’ for mine, My gowd ’s yellow as the stooks o’ Strathairly; But I fain yon lad wad be, That sailed ower the salt sea, As the dawn rose gray on Strathairly. |
