Ay Waukin, O lyrics

Simmer's a pleasant time:

Flowers of every colour,

The water rins owre the heugh,

And I long for my true lover.

Chorus.

Ay waukin, O,

Waukin still and weary:

Sleep I can get nane

For thinking on my dearie.

Ay waukin, o

When I sleep I dream,

When I wauk I'm eerie,

Sleep I can get nane

For thinking on my dearie.

Lanely night comes on,

A' the lave are sleepin,

I think on my bonie lad,

And I bleer my een wi' greetin.
