| The Catrine woods were yellow seen | B |
| The flowers decay'd on Catrine lea | A |
| Nae lav'rock sang on hillock green | B |
| But nature sicken'd on the e'e | A |
| Thro' faded groves Maria sang | C |
| Hersel' in beauty's bloom the while | A |
| And ay the wild wood echoes rang | C |
| Fareweel the Braes o' Ballochmyle | A |

| Low in your wintry beds ye flowers | D |
| Again ye'll nourish fresh and fair | E |
| Ye birdies dumb in withering bowers | D |
| Again ye'll charm the vocal air | E |
| But here alas for me nae mair | E |
| Shall birdie charm or floweret smile | A |
| Fareweel the bonnie banks of Ayr | F |
| Fareweel fareweel sweet Ballochmyle | A |
