They lighted at the yett; And out they cam, his three sisters,
Their brother for to greet.
And they have taen her, bonny Baby, «s
And led her o'er the green; And ilka lady spak a word,
But bonny Baby spake nane.
Then out it spak her, bonny Jane,
The youngest o' the three : ro
" 0 lady, why look ye sae sad ? Come tell your grief to me."
* 0 wharefore should I tell my grief,
Since lax I canna find ? I'm far frae a' my kin and friends, re
And my love I left behind.
" But had I paper, pen, and ink,
Afore that it were day, I yet might get a letter wrate,
And sent to Johnie Hay. eo
" And gin I had a bonny boy,
To help me in my need, That he might rin to bonny Dundee,
And come again wi' speed !" 0 |
