An' evenèn aïr do bring along

The merry deäiry-maïden's zong,

The zong of free light hearts, John.

Oh! why do vo'k so often chaïn

Their pinèn minds vor love o' gaïn,

An' gi'e their innocence to rise

A little in the worold's eyes?

If pride could lift us to the skies,

What man do value God do slight,

An' all is nothèn in his zight
