Master quoth the auld houndA
Where will ye goB
Over moss over muirC
To court my new joB
Master though the night be merkD
I'se follow through the snowB
-
Court her master court herE
So shall ye do weelF
But and ben she'll guide the houseG
I'se get milk and mealF
Ye'se get lilting while she sitsH
With her rock and reelF
-
For oh she has a sweet tongueI
And een that look downJ
A gold girdle for her waistK
And a purple gownJ
She has a good word forbyeL
Fra a' folk in the townJ
