Classic Poem

She

The bonniest lad that e'er I saw,
Bonie laddie, highland laddie,
Wore a plaid and was fu' braw,
Bonie Highland laddie.

On his head a bonnet blue,
Bonie &c.
His royal heart was firm and true,
Bonie &c.

He

Trumpets sound and cannons roar,
Bonie lassie, Lawland lassie,
And a' the hills wi' echoes roar,
Bonie Lawland lassie.

Glory, Honor now invite
Bonie &c.
For freedom and my King to fight
Bonie &c.

She

The sun a backward course shall take,
Bonie laddie &c.
Ere ought thy manly courage shake;
Bonie laddie &c.

Go, for yoursel procure renown,
Bonie &c.
And for your lawful king his crown,
Bonie Highland laddie.
