W:Thou bonnie wood o' Craigielea,
W:Thou bonnie wood o' Craigielea;
W:Neer thee I pass'd life's early day,
W:And won my Mary's heart in thee.
W:
W:The broom, the briar, the birken bush,
W:Bloom bonnie oe'r thy flowry lea,
W:And a' the sweets that ane can wish
W:Frae natures hand are strew'd on thee.
W:Thou bonnie wood, &c.
W:
W:Far ben thy dark green plantin's shade,
W:The cushat croodles am'rously;
W:The mavis, down thy bughted glade,
W:Gars echo ring frae ev'ry tree.
W:Thou bonnie wood, &c.
W:
W:Awa, ye thoughtless, murd'ring gang,
W:Wha tear the nestlings ere they flee!
W:They'll sing you yet a canty sang,
W:Then, O, in pity, let them be!
W:Thou bonnie wood, &c.
W:
W:When winter blaws in sleety show'rs,
W:Frae aff the Norlan' hills sae high,
W:He lightly skiffs thy bonnie bow'rs,
W:As laith to harm a flow'r in thee.
W:Thou bonnie wood, &c.
W:
W:Though fate should drag me south the line,
W:Or o'er the wide Atlantic sea,
W:The happy hours I'll ever min',
W:That I in youth hae spent in thee.
W:Thou bonnie wood, &c.
