lyrics

Why weep ye by the tide lady
Why weep ye by the tide
I’ll wed ye tae my youngest son
And ye shall be his bride
And ye shall be his bride lady
Sae comely tae be seen
But aye she let the tears down fa’
For Jock o’ Hazeldean

Now let this wilfu' grief be done
And dry that cheek sae pale
Young Frank is chief of Errington
And Lord o’ Langleydale
His step is first in peaceful ha'
His sword in battle keen
But aye she let the tears down fa’
For Jock o’ Hazeldean

A chain of gold ye shall not lack
Nor braid tae bind your hair
Nor mettled hound nor managed hawk
Nor palfry fresh and fair
And you the foremost o’ them a’
Shall ride our forest queen
But aye she let the tears down fa’
For Jock o Hazeldean

The kirk was decked at morning tide
The taper glimmered fair
The priest and bridegroom wait the bride
And dame and knight were there
They sought her baith by bower and ha’
The lady was not seen
She's ower the border and awa’
Wi Jock o’ Hazeldean
Wi Jock o’ Hazeldean
