Thou'll sleep 'twixt Donald and the war,
On bed o' bent sae rare, lassie.
Wilt thou go, &c.

When simmer days c'eed a' the braet,
Wi' blossom'd broom sae fine lassie,
At milking abeel we'll join the reel,
My flocks shall a' be thine lassie.
Wilt thou go, &c.

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

For trout and par wi' camny care,
I'll wylie skim the flew lassie;
Wi' sic like cheer I'll please my dear,
Then come awa wi' me lassie.
"Yes I'll go my bonny laddie,
Yes I'll go, my braw laddie,
I'll kilt my coats and tend the goats,
On the braes aboon Bonaw, laddie.

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