When silent time, wi' lightly foot,<br />

When summer comes, the swains on Tweed.<br />

When the sun gaes clown, when the sun gae:<br />

When the sheep are in the fauld,<br />

When trees did bud, and fields were green.<br />

When we cam to London town,<br />

When we went to the braes o' Mar,<br />

When white was my o'erlay,<br />

When wild war's deadly blast was blawn,<br />

Where hae ye been a' day,<br />

Where hae ye been sae braw, lad,<br />

WTiere shall the lover rest,<br />

While fops, in saft Italian verse,<br />

While larks with little wing.<br />

Why weep ye by the tide, ladye,<br />

Willie was a wanton Avag,<br />

Willie Wastle dwalt on Tweed,<br />

Will ye gang o'er the lea-rig,<br />

Will ye gang wi' me, Lizzy Lindsay,<br />

Will ye go to Flanders, my Mally O,<br />

Will ye go to Sherramuir,<br />

Will ye go to the Indies, my Mary,<br />

Will ye go to the yowe-buchts, Marion,<br />

Wilt thou be my dearie,<br />

Ye banks and braes and streams around,<br />

Ye banks and braes o' bonnie Doon,<br />

Ye gales that gently Avave the sea,<br />

Ye gallants braw, I rede ye right,<br />

Yestreen I had a pint o' wine.<br />

You meaner beauties <strong>of</strong> the night.<br />

Young Jockie was the blythest lad.<br />

You're welcome, Whigs, from Bothwell brig,<br />

You've surely heard o' famous Neil, .<br />
