As I was walkin on the strand	A
I spied ane auld man sit	B
On ane auld black rock and aye the waves	C
Cam washin up its fit	B
His lips they gaed as gien they wad lilt	D
But o' liltin wae's me was nane	E
He spak but an owercome dreary and dreigh	F
A burden wha's sang was gane	E
Robbie and Jeanie war twa bonnie bairns	C
They playt thegither i' the gloamin's hush	G
Up cam the tide and the mune and the sterns	C
And pairtit the twa wi' a glint and a gush	G
	-
What can the auld man mean quod I	H
Sittin o' the auld black rock	I
The tide creeps up wi' a moan and a cry	H
And a hiss 'maist like a mock	I
The words he mutters maun be the en'	E
O' some weary auld warl' sang	J
A deid thing floatin aboot in his brain	E
'At the tide 'ill no lat gang	J
Robbie and Jeanie war twa bonnie bairns	C
They playt thegither i' the gloamin's hush	G
Up cam the tide and the mune and the sterns	C
And pairtit the twa wi' a glint and a gush	G
	-
Hoo pairtit it them auld man I said	K
Was't the sea cam up ower strang	J
Oh gien thegither the twa o' them gaed	K
Their pairtin wasna lang	J
Or was are ta'en and the ither left	K
Ane to sing are to greit	K
It's sair I ken to be sae bereft	K
But there's the tide at yer feet	K
Robbie and Jeanie war twa bonnie bairns	C
And they playt thegither i' the gloamin's hush	G
Up cam the tide and the mune and the sterns	C
And pairtit the twa wi' a glint and a gush	G
	-
Was't the sea o' space wi' its storm o' time	L
That wadna lat things bide	K
But Death's a diver frae heavenly clime	L
Seekin ye neth its tide	K
And ye'll gaze again in ither's ee	M
Far abune space and time	L
Never ae word he answered me	M
But changed a wee his rime	M
Robbie and Jeanie war twa bonnie bairns	C
And they playt thegither upo' the shore	N
Up cam the tide and the mune and the sterns	C
And pairtit the twa for evermore	N
	-
May be auld man 'twas the tide o' change	O
That crap atween the twa	P
Hech that's a droonin fearsome strange	O
Waur waur nor are and a'	Q
He said nae mair I luikit and saw	C
His lips they couldna gang	J
Death the diver had ta'en him awa	P
To gie him a new auld sang	J
Robbie and Jeanie war twa bonnie bairns	C
And they playt thegither upo' the shore	N
Up cam the tide and the mune and the sterns	C
And souft them awa throu a mirksome door	N
