The first stanza to be spoken in a loud voice, the second quite quietly. A version of st. 1 from Argyll, in Maclagan (1901), 254: Auld wife, auld wife, are you gaun a shearing?/ Speak a wee thing looder, I'm a wee dull o' hearing. [See Herd MSS, 1776] |
"Auld wife, auld wife, Will ye go a-shearing?" "Speak a little louder, sir, I'm unco dull o' hearing." "Auld wife, auld wife Wad ye tak a kiss?" "Yes, indeed, I will, sir It wadna be amiss." |
"Auld wifie! auld wifie! Ye maun gang a-shearin'." "Speak a little looder, sir I'm unco dull o' hearin'." "Auld wifie! auld wifie! I'm gaun to kiss ye!" "That's a hantle looder, sir, May a' the warld bless you!" |
