Songs — The Auld Sangs.
Medley. Tune, “The Auld Hoose.”
When first I heard the auld sangs
’Twas at my mither’s knee;
I’ll min’ her voice sae sweet an’ low
Until the day I dee.
She sang the sang o’ Auld Lang Syne,
The Braes Abune Bonaw,
The Bonnie Woods o’ Craigielea,
An’ Nannie’s Noo Awa’.
CHORUS.
The Auld Sangs, the Auld Sangs,
I like sae weel tae hear.
O, sing tae me the Auld Sangs
Tae hert an’ memory dear.
Yestreen I gaed a waefu’ gait,
I tramped o’er moss an’ fen
Tae haud a tryst wi’ Bonnie Kate
In Moraig’s fairy glen.
Ye Banks an’ Braes o’ Bonnie Doon,
The Lass o’ Ballochmyle,
An’ ye shall walk in silk attire
Wi’ Mary o’ Argyle.
CHORUS.
Braw, Braw Lads on Yarrow Braes,
Wi’ Rabbie’s Bonnie Jean,
Royal Chairlie’s noo awa’,
An’ Jock o’ Hazeldean.
Gae bring tae me a pint o’ wine,
Get up an’ bar the door.
Guidnicht, an’ joy be wi’ ye a’,
My bark is on the shore.
