Fy let us a' to the bridal,
 * For there will be lilting there;

For Jock's to be married to Maggie,
 * The lass wi' the gowden hair.

and there will be langkail and porridge,
 * And bannocks of barley-meal,

And there will be good saut herring,
 * To relish a cogue of good ale.
 * Fy let us, &c.

And there will be Sawney the sutor,
 * and Will wr' the meikle mou:

And there will be Tam the blutter,
 * With Andrew the tinkler I trow;

And there will be bow'd-legged Robie,
 * With thumbless Katie's goodman;

And there will be blue-cheeked Dowbie,
 * And Lawrie the laird of the land.
 * Fy let us, &c.

And there will be sowlibber Patie,
 * And plucky-fac'd Wat i' the mill,

Cappar-nos'd Francie, and Gibbie
 * That wons in the how o' the hill;
