And then my dear lad, I wad bundle and go."
live now ta'en my leave o' my comrades sae loving,
While tears o' affection in plenty did flow:
My stock is a' here, and I lang to be moving,
I thouoht thou wast ready to bundle and go,
Alane I’ll mane the loss o' my dearie,
Wi' pain in vain my bossom may glow;
L're day be grey, and stranger and weary,
I'll mourn thy refusal to bundle and go.
O haste na dear laddie, O haste na to lea’ me,
I vow d to be true, and I mean to be so,
Altho’ my auld daddy nac tocher should gie me,
Wi’ you, my dear lad, I will bundle and go.
Then prove, my love, a partner that’s steady,
Our joys may rise, tho’ fortune be low;
To flee wi’ thee this night I'm ready,
Fareweel, my auld daddy, I'll bundle and go.
