Sung by Bill McCue
A sprig of white heather brings good luck they say;
My heart goes with this heather I send you today;
My thoughts are always with you, though you're far away;
White heather for love, they say.
The wish that this heather brings comes with a smile
To cheer you as on the way in each lonely mile,
Recalling our happy days, once in a while,
And love that's always true.
I wish on the 'Nuboos', I wish on the Sun
That fortune may find you wherever you are;
So please keep this heather as a sweet souvenir
To guard you, to guide you, all through the year
Until you return to me safely my dear,
Good luck and my love to you.
Good luck and my love to you.
['Nuboos' = a planetary system ]
