Ye Banks And Braes
Real McKenzies

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
