Fareweel ye bughts an' all your ewes | B |
An' fields whare bIoomin' heather grows | C |
Nae mair the sportin' lambs I'll see | D |
Since my true love's forsaken me | D |
- | |
CHORUS | E |
Nae mair I'll hear wi' pleasure sing | F |
The cheerfu' lav'rock in the Spring | F |
But sad in grief now I maun mourn | G |
Far far frae her o'er Logan burn | H |
- | |
Alas nae mair we'll meetings keep | I |
At bughts whan herds ca' in their sheep | I |
Nae mair amang the threshes green | J |
We'll row where we hae aften been | K |
CHORUS | E |
- | |
Nae mair for me ye vi'lets blaw | L |
Or lilies whiter than the snaw | K |
Nae mair your pleasures I can bear | M |
While I am absent frae my dear | N |
CHORUS | E |
- | |
I ken the cause of my hard fate | O |
In courtin' her I was too blate | O |
I never kiss'd my lass at a' | P |
But when we met an' gaed awa' | Q |
CHORUS | E |
- | |
Oh could my tears again bring back | R |
The days now past I'd no' be slack | R |
For ev'ry kiss she got before | S |
I wad gie to her now a score | S |
CHORUS | E |
- | |
O fortune I wad you favour me | D |
In some snug corner her to see | D |
My heart I wad to her reveal | L |
An' in her arms my pardon seal | L |
CHORUS | E |
