Subject: Lyr Req: False, False Hae You
I know the lyrics to this. It appeared on the National Geographic album of Scot music that came out sometime in the '70's. I memorised it but I never found out the meaning of one of the verses.
Oh, but I mean to climb, Up some higher tree To harrie{sic} a white snowflake's nest. Oh, and doon sall I fall Aye without any fear Tae the arms that love me the best.
It is the line about harrying the white snowflakes nest that I don't understand the meaning of.
