The words to GlenLyon Lament.

1.
Waly waly up the bank waly waly up the brae
Waly by yon riverside we were won't to gae

Ch.
Hovan hovan hovan eerie hovan hovan o
hovan hovan eerie hovan hovan o

2.
Gone were but the winter cold Gone were but the snow
I would sleep as he where the violets blow

This song is in a book called Song of the isles By Hugh s. Roberton
