lyrics
Ye banks and braes o' bonnie Doon,
How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair
How can ye chant ye little birds
And I sae weary fu' o' care
Thou’ll break my heart thou warbling bird
That wanton through the flow'ry thorn
Thou minds me o' departed joys
Departed never to return
Aft hae I rov'd by bonnie Doon
To see the rose and woodbine twine
And ilka bird sang o' its love
And fondly sae did I o' mine
Wi' lightsome heart I pu'd a rose
Fu' sweet upon its thorny tree
And my fause lover staw my rose
But ah! she left the thorn wi' me
But ah! she left the thorn wi' me
How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair
How can ye chant ye little birds
And I sae weary fu' o' care
Thou’ll break my heart thou warbling bird
That wanton through the flow'ry thorn
Thou minds me o' departed joys
Departed never to return
Aft hae I rov'd by bonnie Doon
To see the rose and woodbine twine
And ilka bird sang o' its love
And fondly sae did I o' mine
Wi' lightsome heart I pu'd a rose
Fu' sweet upon its thorny tree
And my fause lover staw my rose
But ah! she left the thorn wi' me
But ah! she left the thorn wi' me
