Why weep ye by the tide ladieA
Why weep ye by the tideA
I'll wed ye to my youngest sonB
And ye sall be his brideA
And ye sall be his bride ladieA
Sae comely to be seenC
But aye she loot the tears sown fa'D
For Jock of HazeldeanC
-
Now let this wilfu' grief be doneC
And dry that cheek so paleE
Young Frank is chief of ErringtonC
And lord of Langley daleE
His step is first in peaceful ha'F
His sword in battle keenC
But aye she loot the tears down fa'D
For Jock of HazeldeanC
-
A chain of gold you sall not lackG
Nor braid to bind your hairH
Nor mettled hound nor managed hawkI
Nor palfrey fresh and fairH
And you the foremost o' them a'J
Shall ride our forest queenC
But aye she loot the tears down fa'D
For Jock of HazeldeanC
-
The kirk was deck'd at morning tideA
The tapers glimmer'd fairH
The priest and bridegroom wait the brideA
And dame and knight are thereH
They sought her baith by bower and ha'F
The ladie was not seenC
She's o'er the Border and awa'K
Wi' Jock of HazeldeanC
