An away to the bonnie green wood she’s gane.

They hadna gane a mile in that bonnie green wood,
They had na gane a mile but only ane,
Till they met wi Willie, her ain true-love,
An thrae her sisters he has her taen.

He’s taen her sisters ilk by the hand,
He’s kissd them baith, an he’s sent them hame;
