Original lyrics
ENFrom the landing of Portree
To the wild Cape Breton coast
Every mile in between
And on every word I spoke
You never left me all the miles
You were with me all the way
On every cloud that drifted by
Every wave my bow did break
Where the fire meets the sky
In the land of coal and steel
I still feel you by my side
I feel I always will
And it makes a poor man strong
To have a sense of home
And the ground on which I stand
Knows no distance to me when
