"The Wayfaring Stranger" (also known as "Poor Wayfaring Stranger" or "I Am a Poor Wayfaring Stranger"), Roud 3339, is a well-known American folk and gospel song likely originating in the early 19th century about a plaintive soul on the journey through life. As with most folk songs, many variations of the lyrics exist and many versions of this song have been published over time by popular singers, often being linked to times of hardship and notable experiences in the singers' lives, such as the case with Burl Ives' autobiography.

  • «Wayfaring Stranger» — американская народная песня. Её происхождение достоверно неизвестно: она присутствовала в репертуаре как белого, так и чёрного населения региона Аппалачи, а также тесно ассоциировалась с меландженами. Текст написан от лица странника, исходя из религиозных представлений о жизни как полном трудностей духовном путешествии. Наиболее ранние публикации мелодии музыковеды обнаруживают в источниках первой половины XIX века, а текста — в изданиях середины столетия. Собранные фолклористами устные свидетельства говорят о существовании песни уже в 1780-е годы. Однако в своём современном виде мелодия и текст сошлись воедино лишь в XX веке.
