Lady Nairne. 1766-1845.

There 's nae sorrow there, John,

There 's neither cauld nor care, John,

The day is aye fair,

In the land o' the leal.

The Land o' the Leal.

Gude nicht, and joy be wi' you a'.

Gude Nicht, etc.[458:1]

Oh, we 're a' noddin', nid, nid, noddin';

Oh, we 're a' noddin' at our house at hame.

We 're a' Noddin'.

A penniless lass wi' a lang pedigree.

The Laird o' Cockpen.

[458:1] Sir Alexander Boswell composed a version of this song.
