My Harry was a gallant gay

Fu' stately strode he on the plain,

But now he's banished far away,

I'll never see him back again.

O for him back again!

O for him back again!

I wad gie a' knockaspie's land,

For Highland Harry back again.

When a' the lave gae to their bed,

I wander dowie up the glen,

I sit me down and greet my fill,

And aye I wish him back again.

O for him back, &c.

O were some villains hangit high,

And ilka body had their ain,

Then I might see the joyfu' sight;

My Highland Harry back again

O for him back, &c.

Sad was the day, and sad the hour,

He left me in his native plain,

And rush d his much wrang'd prince john.

But, oh! he ne'er cam back again.

O for him back, &c.
