What will I do gin my Hoggie die | A |
My joy my pride my Hoggie | B |
My only beast I had nae mae | C |
And vow but I was vogie | D |
The lee lang night we watch'd the fauld | A |
Me and my faithfu' doggie | B |
We heard nought but the roaring linn | E |
Amang the braes sae scroggie | B |
But the houlet cry'd frae the castle wa' | F |
The blitter frae the boggie | B |
The tod reply'd upon the hill | G |
I trembled for my Hoggie | B |
When day did daw and cocks did craw | H |
The morning it was foggie | B |
An' unco tyke lap o'er the dyke | B |
And maist has kill'd my Hoggie | B |
Robert Burns
