Lady, Lady Lanners,

Tak’ up your clowk about your head,

An’ flee awa’ to Flanners (Flanders).

Flee ower firth, and flee ower fell,

Flee ower pule and rinnan’ well,

Flee ower muir, and flee ower mead,

Flee ower livan, flee ower dead,

Flee ower corn, and flee ower lea,

Flee ower river, flee ower sea,
