AND there she's leand her back to a thorn,
Refrain:
Oh and alelladay, oh and alelladay
And there she has her baby born.
Refrain:
Ten thousand times good night and be wi thee
She has houked a grave ayont the sun,
And there she has buried the sweet babe in.
And she's gane back to her father's ha,
She's counted the leelest maid o them a'.
"O look not sae sweet, my bonie babe,
Gin ye smyle sae, ye'll smyle me dead."
