Tho' I lo'e them as weel as a daughter should do, ;
They are nae hauf sae dear to me, Jamie, as you.
He said, think na lang, &c.
I sit on my creepie, and spin at my wheel,
And think on the laddie that lo'ed me sae weel ;
He had but ae saxpence, he brak it in twa,
And he gied me the hauf o't when he gade awa.
Then haste ye back, Jamie, and bide na awa,
Then haste ye back, Jamie, and bide na awa ;
The simmer is coming, cauld winter's awa,
And ye'll come and see me in spite o' them a'.
