"Song of the Falklands" is the unofficial anthem of the Falkland Islands ("God Save the King" being the official). It was written in the 1930s by Christopher Lanham, a Hampshire schoolteacher, while working on West Falkland.

Lyrics

I In my heart there's a call for the isles far away Where the wind from the Horn often wanders at play. Where the kelp moves and swells to the wind and the tide And penguins troop down from the lonely hillside. Chorus: II There's a camp house down yonder I'm longing to see, Though it's no gilded palace it's there I would be. Just to be there again I would race o’er the foam, For that lone house so far is my own home sweet home. III Now we’re off to the Falklands, so wild and so free, Where there's tussock and kelp and the red diddle-dee, And the wild rugged beauty that thrills more than me Is bred in the bones on the isles of the sea.
