| And weary fa' the west | B |
| And gin I were under the wan waves wide | C |
| I wot weel wad I rest | B |
| O weary fa' the north wind | A |
| And weary fa' the south | D |
| The sea went ower my good lord's head | E |

| Weary fa' the windward rocks | F |

| They might hae sunken sevenscore ships | H |
| And let my love's gang free | G |
| And weary fa' ye mariners a' | I |
| And weary fa' the sea | G |
| It might hae taken an hundred men | J |
| And let my ae love be | G |
