My father pat me frae his door, A pair o' gloves he bought to me,
My friends they hae difown'd me a; And lilken fnoods he gae me twa,
But there is ane will tak my part, And I will wear them for his fake,
The bonie lad that's far awa. The bonie lad that's far awa.
But there &c. And I will &c.
O weary winter foon will pafs,
And fpring will deed the birken fhaw;
And my young babie will be born.,
And he'll be hame that's far awa.
