highnd mary
tune—“katherine ogie.”
ye banks, and braes, and streams around
the castle o' montgomery!
green be your woods, and fair your flowers,
your waters never drumlie:
there simmer first unfauld her robes,
and there the arry;
for there i took the st farewell
o' my sweet highnd mary.
how sweetly bloom'd the gay, green birk,
how rich the hawthorn's blossom,
as underh their fragrant shade,
i csp'd her to my bosom!
the golden hours on angel wings,
flew o'er me and my dearie;
for dear to me, as light and life,
Highland Mary(1/3)
