Thread Name: Lyr Req: Cloudberry Day (Geordie McIntyre)
Subject: Lyr Add: CLOUDBERRY DAY (Geordie McIntyre)^^
Here's Geordie's lyric. I expect that as usual all the linebreaks will disappear. Can someone please fix them,
Ta
CLOUDBERRY DAY
We made our way
On a cloudberry day,
Across the rolling hills tae Yarrow.
Summer days are here,
The laverock singing clear,
Across the rolling hills tae Yarrow.
Heard the golden plover call,
Saw the kestrel rise and fall,
Across the rolling hills tae Yarrow.
Distant views tae misty dens,
Glamourie beyond oor ken,
Across the rolling hills tae Yarrow.
When we reached the Douglasburn,
We sang a song in turn,
Tae ease the winding way tae Yarrow.
Yarrow stream came into view,
And the guid auld Goerdon too,
Tak time tae quench oor drouth at yarrow.
At the toon foot rendezvous,
Charlie's welcome ever true,
Enjoined in friendship's name in Yarrow.
So near, so far away, we celebrate the day,
We crossed the rolling hills tae Yarrow.
We made our way
On a cloudberry day,
Across the rolling hills tae Yarrow.
