W:2.My blessings upon that sweet wee lippie,
W:    My blessings upon that bonny ee-brie!
W:  Thy smiles are sae like my blythe sodger laddie,
W:    Thou's ay the dearer and dearer to me.
W:  But I'll big a bower on yon bonny banks,
W:    Where Tay rins wimplin by sae clear,
W:  And I'll clead thee in the tartan sae fine,
W:    And mak thee a man like thy daddy dear.

W:1.Whare gat ye that bonny blue bannet?
W:    O silly blind body, canna ye see?
W:  I gat it frae a bonny Scots cailan,
W:    At ween Saint Johnstoun and bonny Dundee.
W:  And O, gin I saw but the laddie that gae me't!
W:    Fu' aft has he doudl'd me upon his knee;
W:  But now he's awa, and I dinna ken whare he's;
W:    O gin he was back to his minny and me!
W:
W:2.My heart has nae room when I think on my dawty;
W:    His dear rosy haffets bring tears in my ee:
W:  But now he's awa, and I dinna ken whare he's;
W:    Gin we could ance meet, we'se ne'er part till we die.
W:  And O, gin I saw but my bonny Scots callan!
W:    Fu' aft hae he doudl'd me upon his knee;
W:  But now he's awa, and I dinna ken whare he's;
W:    O gin he was back to his minny and me!

T: JESSIE
T: to the same air
K:
W:1.True-hearted was he, the sad swain o' the Yarrow,
W:    And fair are the maids on the banks o' the Ayr;
W:  But by the sweet side o' the Nith's winding river,
W:    Are lovers as faithful, and maidens as fair.
W:  To equal young Jessie, seek Scotland all over:
W:    To equal young Jessie you seek it in vain;
W:  Grace, beauty, and elegance, fetter her lover,
W:    And maidenly modesty fixes the chain.
W:
W:2.O fresh is the rose in the gay dewy morning,
W:    And sweet is the lily at evening close;
W:  But in the fair presence o' lovely young Jessie,
W:    Unseen is the lily, unheeded the rose.
W:  Love sits in her smile a wizard ensnaring;
W:    Enthron'd in her ee he delivers his law;
W:  And still to her charms she alone is a stranger;
W:    Her modest demeanour's the jewel of a'.
