Wilt thou go my bonnie lassie??

Wilt thou go, my bonnie lassie.
wilt thou go my braw lassie
Wilt thou go say I or no
to the braes aboon Bonaw, lassie.

Tho Donald hae na meikle phrase
wi’ lawland speeches fine lassie
What he'll impart comes frae the heart
Sae let it be wi’ thine lassie.
Wilt thou go &c.

When simmer days cleed a' the braes
wi’ blosom 'd broom sae fine, lassie.
At milking seel we'll join the reel:
my flocks shall a be thine, lassie.
Wilt thou go, &c.

I'll hunt the roe, the hart, the doe,
the tarmigan sae shy, lassie;
For duck and drake I'll beat the brake
nae want shall come thee nigh, lassie.
Wilt thou go. &c.

For trout an par, wi canny care
I'll wily skim the flee, lassie;
Wi sic like cheer I'll please my dear——
Then come awa wi me, lassie.

Yes, I'll go, my braw laddie,
Yes, I'll go. my bonnie ladie:
I'll kilt my coats I'll tent the goats,
On the braes aboon Bonaw, laddie.

Gin thou'lt prove true thou'lt never rue,
the love thou bear'st for me, laddie;
Ilk joy an care wi thee I'll share,
Until the day I die, laddie.

Come awa, my bonnie laddie,
come awa, my braw laddie,
Come weel. come wae. I'll kilt and gae
to the braes aboon Bonaw, laddie.
