Have yo seen mi bonny MaryA
Shoo lives at Skircoit GreenB
An old fowk say a fairer lassC
Nor her wor nivver seenB
An th' young ens say shoo's th' sweetest flaarA
'At's bloomin thear to dayD
An one an all are scared to deeathE
Lest shoo should flee awayD
-
Shoo's health an strength an beauty tooF
Shoo's grace an style as weelG
An what's moor precious far nor allG
Her heart is true as steelG
Shoo's full ov tenderness an loveH
For onny in distressI
Whearivver sorrows heaviest proveJ
Shoo's thear to cheer an blessI
-
Her fayther's growin old an grayD
Her mother's wellny doneK
But in ther child they find a stayD
As life's sands quickly runK
Her smilin face like sunshine comesL
To chase away ther caresM
An peeace an comfort allus dwellsN
In that dear hooam ov theirsM
-
Each Sundy morn shoo's off to schooilG
To taich her Bible classC
An meets a smilin welcomeO
From ivvery lad an lassC
An when they sing some old psalm tuneP
Her voice rings sweet an clearA
It saands as if an angel's tongueQ
Had joined in worship thearA
-
Aw sometimes see her safely hooamO
An oft aw've tried to tellG
That precious saycret ov a hooapR
'At in mi heart does dwellG
But when aw've seen the childlike trustS
'At glances throo her e'eA
To spaik ov love aw nivver durstT
Shoo's far too gooid for meA
-
But to grow worthy ov her loveH
Is what aw meean to tryA
An time may my affection proveJ
An win her bye an byeA
Then aw shall be the happiest chapR
'At Yorksher's ivver seenB
An some fine day aw'll bear awayD
