"Over the Hills and Far Away" is a traditional British song, dating back to at least the late 17th century. One version was published in Thomas D'Urfey's Wit and Mirth, or Pills to Purge Melancholy; a very different one appeared in George Farquhar's 1706 play The Recruiting Officer. A version also appears in John Gay's The Beggar's Opera of 1728.
The words have changed over the years, as can be seen in the versions below. The only consistent element in early versions is the title line and the tune. D'Urfey's and Gay's versions both refer to lovers, while Farquhar's version refers to fleeing overseas to join the army. The tune was provided with another set of lyrics for the British Sharpe television series of the 1990s, based on Farquhar's version. This version was also recorded by John Tams who played Dan Hagman in the series.

Just like the lads were so strong nobody could emulate their ability to cover such wide space wutg stretched availability. Whatever came they never were invaded off of the British mainland

отличная мотивирующая песня, хоть и от бритов

I like this version but I must say I find the Gin Lane version, it is perhaps closer to the original version.
Please note the references to Queen Anne, Galway and Marlborough:
