| Young Jamie pride of a' the plain | B |
| Sae gallant and sae gay a swain | B |
| Thro' a' our lasses he did rove | C |
| And reign'd resistless king of love | D |
| But now wi' sighs and starting tears | E |
| He strays amang the woods and briers | E |
| Or in the glens and rocky caves | E |
| His sad complaining dowie raves | E |

| I wha sae late did range and rove | C |
| And chang'd with every moon my love | D |
| I little thought the time was near | F |
| Repentance I should buy sae dear | F |
| The slighted maids my torment see | E |
| And laugh at a' the pangs I dree | F |
| While she my cruel scornfu' fair | F |
| Forbids me e'er to see her mair | F |
