"O we'll go take the bride's maidens,

And we'll go fill the ring."=

O ben then cam the auld French lord,

Saying, "Bride, will ye dance with me?"

"Awa', awa', ye auld French Lord,

Your face I downa see."

O ben then cam now Sweet Willie,

He cam with ane advance:

"O I'll go tak the bride's maidens,

And we'll go tak a dance."
