LYRICS
Ye banks and braes of bonnie Doon
How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair?
How can ye chant ye little birds
While I sae weary, fu’ o’ care?
Ye’ll break my heart, ye warbling birds
That wanton through the flowery thorn
Ye mind me o’ departed joys
Departed never to return
That wanton through the flowery thorn
Ye mind me o’ departed joys
Departed never to return
Oft hae I roved by bonnie Doon,
To see the rose and woodbine twine
And ilka bird sang o’ all its joy
And fondly sae did I o’ mine
To see the rose and woodbine twine
And ilka bird sang o’ all its joy
And fondly sae did I o’ mine
Wi’ lithesome heart I pulled a rose
Full sweet upon its thorny tree
And my fause lover staw my rose
But ah! he left the thorn wi’ me
Full sweet upon its thorny tree
And my fause lover staw my rose
But ah! he left the thorn wi’ me
