And I were ne'er sae wearie O,

I'd meet thee on the lea-rig,

My ain kind dearie O.

The hunter lo'es the morning sun, loves

To rouse the mountain deer, my jo;

At noon the fisher takes the glen,

Along the burn to steer, my jo;

Gie me the hour o' gloamin grey twilight

It maks my heart sae cheery O,

To meet thee on the lea-rig,
