C 59 1
Bonny laffie, will ye go,
Will ye go, will ye go ?
Bonny laffie will ye go
To the birks of Abergeldie ?
Ye fall get a gown of filk,
A gown of filk, a gown of filk,
Ye fall get a gown of filk,
And a coat of eallimankie.
Na, kind fir, I dare nae gang,
I dare nae gang, I dare nae gang,
Na, kind fir, I dare nae gang,
My minny will be angry ;
Sair, fair, wad fbe flyte ;
Wad fbe flyte, wad fhe flyte;
Sair, fair, wad flie flyte ;
And fair wad flie ban me.
