W:Ye banks and braes o' bonnie Doon,
W:How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair?
W:How can ye chant, ye little birds,
W:And I sae weary, fu' o' care!
W:Thou'll break my heart, thou warbling bird,
W:That wantons thro' the flowering thorn:
W:Thou minds me o' departed joys,
W:Departed never to return.

W:Aft hae I rov'd by bonnie Doon,
W:To see the rose and woodbine twine:
W:And ilka bird sang o' its Luve,
W:And fondly sae did I o' mine.
W:Wi' lightsome heart I pu'd a rose,
W:Fu' sweet upon its thorny tree!
W:But may fause Luver staw my rose,
W:And ah! She left the thorn wi' me.
