But my delight’s at the farmer’s ingle.

Chorus—For the farmer’s ingle is the place

Where freedom shines on ilka face.

My wish is while on earth to mingle

Wi’ gude honest people at the farmer’s ingle.

“In winter when the frost an’ snaw

Drives a’ the masons frae the wa’,

Your hearts wad warm and yer ears wad tingle

To hear the cracks at the farmer’s ingle.

Chorus—For the farmer’s ingle is the place, etc.
