On yon bnnnic heather hnnwes
We pledged oiir mutual vows,
Ami dear is the spot unto mi;
Tho' "pleasure I hae nane,
While 1 wantlcr alanc.
Ami mv Jamie is far oVr'the sea.
But -why should 1 mourn,
The seasons -will return,
And verdure again clothe the lea;
The flowVcts shall spring,
And the saft breeze shall bring
My dear Laddie again back .to me.

Thou star! give thy light,
Guide my lover aright,
Frae rocks and frae shoals keep him free;
Now gold I hae in store,
He shall "wander no more,
No, no more shall he sail o'er the sea.
