HEE balou, my sweet wee Donald,
Picture o the great Clanronald;
Brawlie kens our wanton Chief
Wha gat my young Highland thief.
Leeze me on thy bonie craigie,
An thou live, thoull steal a naigie,
Travel the country thro and thro,
And bring hame a Carlisle cow.
Thro the Lawlands, oer the Border,
Weel, my babie, may thou furder!
Herry the louns o the laigh Countrie,
Syne to the Highlands hame to me.
