the braes ascend like lofty wa's,

the foaming stream deep-roaring fa's,

o'erhung wi' fragrant spreading shaws—

the birks of aberfeldy.

bonie lassie, &c.

the hoary cliffs are crown'd wi' flowers,

white o'er the linns the burnie pours,

and rising, weets wi' misty showers

the birks of aberfeldy.

bonie lassie, &c.

let fortune's gifts at randoe flee,

they ne'er shall draw a wish frae me;

supremely blest wi' love and thee,

in the birks of aberfeldy.

bonie lassie, &c.
