Your hawk's blood was never sae red,

My dear son I tell thee oh.

"Oh I hae killed my red-roan steed,

Mither, mither:

Oh I hae killed my red roan steed

That erst was sae fair and free oh."

Your steed was auld, and ye hae got mair,

Edward, Edward;

Your steed was auld, and ye hae got mair,

Some other dule ye dree oh.
