Behind yon hills, where Lugar flows,
`Mang moors an` mosses many, O,
The wintry sun the day has clos`d,
And I`ll awa to Nannie, O.
The westlin wind blaws loud and shill;
The night`s baith mirk an` rainy, O;
But I`ll get my plaid, an` out I`ll steal,
An` owre the hills to Nannie, O.
My Nannie`s charming, sweet, an` young:
Nae artfu` wiles to Will ye, O:
May ill befa` the flattering tongue
That wad beguile my Nannie, O.
Her face is fair, her heart is true,
She`s spotless as she`s bonnie, O:
The op`ning gowan, wet wi` dew,
Nae purer is than Nannie, O.
A country lad is my degree,
And few there be that ken me, O;
But what care I how few they be
I`m welcome aye to Nannie, O.
My riches a` `s my penny-fee,
An` I maun guide it cannie, O;
But warl`s gear ne`er troubles me,
My thoughts are a` my Nannie, O.
Our auld guidman delights to view
His sheep and kye thrive bonnie, O;
But I`m as blythe that hauds his pleugh,
An` has nae care but Nannie, O.
Come weel, come woe, I care na by,
I`ll tak` what Heav`n will sen` me, O;
Nae ither care in life have I,
But live, an` love my Nannie, O.
