HUSH YE MY BAIRNIE

Hush ye, my bairnie
Bonny wee laddie
When you’re a man
you shall follow your daddy.
Lift me a coo ‘n’
a goat and a wether,
Bringing them hame
To your mammy together.

Hush ye, my bairnie
Bonny wee laddie
Nowt but good things
Ye shall bring to your mammy
Hare frae the meadow
deer frae the mountain
Grouse frae the moorland
And trout frae the fountain.

Hush ye, my bairnie
Bonny wee laddie
Sleep now and close your eyes
Rest ye are taking
Sound be thy sleeping
And bright be thy waking
Hush ye, my bairnie
Bonny wee laddie
