Above a plain of gold and green

Posted by Gus Ormiston on March 08, 2003 at 16:50:00:

When I was a young GS I was taught this song:
"Above a plain of gold and green,
a young boy's head is plainly seen.
CH A hoo-ya, hoo-ya, hoo-ya-ya, swifty flowing
La- bay, A hoo-ya, hoo-ya, hoo ya-ya, swiftly flowing
waters.
And for our pleasure it was made
this *** old castle, deep in shade. CH."
Seems like it was presented as a "Y" song but all the folk who knew the origin are now dead.
Can anyone fill the blank, correct the wrong words and say to what it refers?
Thanks
