Craigieburn Wood

Sweet closes the evening on Craigieburn Wood

And blythely awaukens the morrow

But the pride o' the spring in the Craigieburn Wood

Can yield me nothing but sorrow

Chorus:

Beyond thee dearie, beyond thee dearie

And oh to be lying beyond thee

Oh sweetly, soundly, weel may he sleep

That's laed in the bed beyond thee

I see the spreading leaves and flowers

I hear the wild birds singing

But pleasure they hae nane for me

While care my heart is wringing

Chorus

I can na tell, I maun na tell

I daur na for good anger

But secret love will break my heart

If I conceal it langer

Chorus

I see thee graceful, straight and tall

I see thee sweet and bonnie

But oh what will my torment be

If thou refuse thy Johnnie?

Chorus

To see thee in another's arms

In love to lie and languish

'Twad be my dead, that will be seen

My heart wad burst wi' anguish

Chorus

But Jeannie say thou wilt be mine

Say thou lo'es nane before me

And a' my days o' life to come

I'll gratefully adore thee

Chorus
