And surly Winter grimly flies | B |
Now crystal clear are the falling waters | C |
And bonie blue are the sunny skies | B |
Fresh o'er the mountains breaks forth the morning | A |
The ev'ning gilds the ocean's swell | D |
All creatures joy in the sun's returning | A |
And I rejoice in my bonie Bell | D |

The flowery Spring leads sunny Summer | E |
The yellow Autumn presses near | F |
Then in his turn comes gloomy Winter | E |
Till smiling Spring again appear | F |
Thus seasons dancing life advancing | A |
Old Time and Nature their changes tell | D |
But never ranging still unchanging | A |
I adore my bonie Bell | D |
