Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBC DDAAAAC AAAAAAC| Softly now the burn is rushing | A |
| Every lark its song is hushing | A |
| On the moor thick rest is falling | A |
| Just one heather blade is calling | A |
| Calling calling lonely lonely | B |
| For my darling for my only | B |
| Leanbhain O Leanbhain O | C |
| - | |
| Trotting home my dearie dearie | D |
| Wee black lamb comes wearie wearie | D |
| Here its soft feet pit a patting | A |
| Quickly o'er the flowery matting | A |
| See its brown black eyes a blinking | A |
| Of its bed it's surely thinking | A |
| Leanbhain O Leanbhain O | C |
| - | |
| The hens to roost wee Nora's shooing | A |
| Brindley in the byre is mooing | A |
| The tired out cricket's quit its calling | A |
| Velvet sleep on all is falling | A |
| Lark and cow and sheep and starling | A |
| Feel it kiss our white haired darling | A |
| Leanbhain O Leanbhain O | C |
