Rhyme Scheme: AAAA BBCC DDEE AAAA FFBB GGHH IJAABonnie Mary the Maid o' the Tay | A |
Come Let's go and have a holiday | A |
In Newport on the braes o' the silvery Tay | A |
'Twill help to drive dull care away | A |
- | |
The scenery there is most enchanting to be seen | B |
Especially the fine mansions with their shrubbery green | B |
And the trees and ivy are beautiful to view | C |
Growing in front of each stately home in the avenue | C |
- | |
There the little birds and beautiful butterflies | D |
Are soaring heavenwards almost to the skies | D |
And the busy bees are to be seen on the wing | E |
As from flower to flower they hummingly sing | E |
- | |
As they gather honey all the day | A |
From flowery gardens of Newport on the braes o' the Tay | A |
And as we view the gardens our hearts will feel gay | A |
After being pent up in the workshop all the day | A |
- | |
Then there's a beautiful spot near an old mill | F |
Suitable for an artist to paint of great skill | F |
And the trees are arched o'erhead lovely to be seen | B |
Which screens ye from the sunshine's glittering sheen | B |
- | |
Therefore holiday makers I'd have ye resort | G |
To Newport on the braes o' the Tay for sport | G |
And inhale the pure air with its sweet perfume | H |
Emanating from the flowery gardens of Newport and the yellow broom | H |
- | |
And when bright Sol sinks in the West | I |
You'll return home at night quite refreshed | J |
And dream in your beds of your rambles during the day | A |
Along the bonnie braes o' the silvery Tay | A |
