    and here's another translation to the version of the song called "Westering Home":

    Westering Home

    Chorus..
    And it's Westering home, and a song in the air,
    Light in the eye, and it's goodbye to care.
    Laughter o' love, and a welcoming there,
    Isle of my heart, my own one.

    Tell me 0' lands o' the Orient gay,
    Speak o' the riches and joys 0' Cathay;
    Eh, but it's grand to be wakin' ilk day
    To find yourself nearer to Isla.

    Chorus: And it's Westering home...

    Where are the folk like the folk o' the west?
    Canty, and couthy, and kindly, the best.
    There I would hie me and there I would rest
    At hame wi' my ain folk in Isla.

    Chorus: And it's Westering home...
