The word "Sartar" was originally "Scotland", and "Quivin" was "Highland". No other changes needed.

Oh where, tell me where, is your Quivin laddie gone?
Oh where, tell me where, is your Quivin laddie gone?
He's gone wi' streaming banners where noble deeds are done
And it's oh in my heart I wish him safe at home.
Oh where, tell me where, did your Quivin laddie dwell?
Oh where, tell me where, did your Quivin laddie dwell?
He dwelt in bonnie Sartar where blooms the sweet bluebell
And it's oh in my heart I rue my laddie well.
Oh what, tell me what, should your Quivin lad be slain?
Oh what, tell me what, should your Quivin lad be slain?
Oh no, true love will be his guide and bring him safe again
For it's oh my heart would break if my Quivin lad were slain.
He's gone wi' streaming banners where noble deeds are done
And it's oh in my heart I wish him safe at home.
