She oped the door ; she let him in
He cuist aside his dreepin' plaidie
Blaw your warst, ye wind and rain,
Since, Maggie, now I'm in beside ye
Now, since ye're waukin', Maggie,
Now, since ye're waukin', Maggie,
What care I for howlet's cry,
For boor-tree bank and warlock craggie I
WE'LL MEET BESIDE THE DUSKY
GLEN.
TANNAHILL.
Tune— There grows a lonnie Brier BusJu
We'll meet beside the dusky glen on yon burn-side.
Where the bushes form a cozie den, on yon burn-side
Though the broomy knowes be green.
Yet there we may be seen
But we'll meet—we'll meet at e'en, down by yon burn-
side.
I'll lead thee to the birken bower on yon burn-side,
Sae sweitly wove wi' woodbine flower, on yon burn-
side :
There the busy prying eye
Ne'er disturbs the lover's joy,
While in other's arms they lie, down by yon burn-side.
Awa, ye rude unfeelin' crew, frae yon burn-side !
Those fairy scenes are no for you, by yon burn-side
