ye banks & braes of bonnie doon,
  how can ye bloom sae fresh & fair
  how can ye chant ye tiny wee birds
  and i sae weary & nae full o' care
  ye break me heart; ye birds that sing
  that warble through the flowery thorn
  ye remind me of a departed joy
  departed forever tae never return
    i've often roamed by bonnie doon
  to walk by the ocean, the wind & the sky
  and like the birdees that sing o' their love,
  sae fondly say did i of mine
  with lightsome heart i spied a rose
  so sweet and aglow on thorny tree
  and my false love did steal that rose
  and all she left me was but a thorn
    [Repeat 2nd Verse]
