Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEBFBFAF BGDGHBIBBBAJ DKHKLMAMHNANGin you're gangin' doon the city | A |
Come next Sabbath afternoon | B |
An' you'll catch a glimpse o' Tartan | C |
An' you'll hear a skirlin' tune | B |
An' you'll see a crowd o' laddies | D |
Lookin' verra dour an' staid | E |
Wi' just here an' there a Cairngorn | B |
An' a wee tiny speck o' plaid | F |
Dinna think from their expression | B |
They are on some mission sad | F |
For their thoughts are back wi' Bobbie | A |
Wi' the braw brave ploughman lad | F |
- | |
Once again they'll see him treadin' | B |
Dreary eyed behind the plough | G |
With his thoughts amonsgt the angels | D |
And a brave light on his brow | G |
Once again they'll see him sparking | H |
By the burnside and the glen | B |
Wi' another sort of angel | I |
An' a sonsy lass ye ken | B |
Aye a thousand sober Scotsmen | B |
On the Sabbath afternoon | B |
Will be back again with Bobbie | A |
With a graceless godlike gloom | J |
- | |
But they'll not tell of his tailin's | D |
He was human he was young | K |
But they'll join him in his dreaming | H |
And the rare brave songs he sung | K |
Singing songs of bonny Scotland | L |
That will never fade with time | M |
Noble thoughts of truth and beauty | A |
That is genius put in rhyme | M |
And they'll love him for his dreaming | H |
Aye and for his failin's too | N |
When their thoughts go back to Bobbie | A |
Sweetest singer Scotland knew | N |
