7 BUXOM BONNY WILLIE.

When fragrant bloom of yellow broom,

delights our lads and lasses,

O'er yellow broom in beauty's bloom,

my will all lads surpasses;

Wi' Willy then I'll o'er the braes,

I'll o'er the braes wi' Willy;

Wi Willy then I'll o'er the braes,

I'll owre the braes wil Willy.

From morn to eve I'll sing the praise,

of buxom bonny Willy,

Willy, Willy, Willy, Willy:

From morn to eve I'll sing the praise,

Of buxom bonny Willy.

Redlin'd by Tay at noon-tide day,

we'll pu' the daisy pretty,

The live-lang day we'll kiss and play,

or sing some loving ditty.

W. Willy then, &c.

Now blythe and gay at setting day,

gif mither dinna hinder,

I'll sing and play wi' Willy gay,

for we twa ne'er shall sinder.

Wi' Willy then, &c.
