 But by the moon and stars so bright,

That shone that hour so clearly!

She aye shall bless that happy night,

Amang the rigs o’ barley.

I hae been blythe wi’ comrades dear,

I hae been merry drinkin’;

I hae been joyfu' gathering gear,

I hae been happy thinkin;

But of a’ the pleasures e’er I saw,

Tho’ three times doubled fairly,

That happy night was worth them a’,

Amang the rigs o’ barley.
