There’s neither cauld nor care, Jean;

The day is aye fair

In the land o’ the leal.

Our bonnie bairn’s there, Jean;

She was baith gude and fair, Jean;

And oh! we grudged her sair

To the land o’ the leal.

But sorrow’s sel’ wears past, Jean;

And joy’s a-comin’ fast, Jean,

The joy that’s aye to last
