The sun shines high on yonder hill
And low in yonder dell
The place where me and my love dwells
The sun, it never goes doon, bonnie love
The sun, never goes dune.
Gi' saddle to me the bonnie black steed,
Or saddle to me the brune,
That I may ride o 'er and bonnie love,
That I may ride o 'er an d bonnie love,
That I may ride o 'er and.
It's when will ye be back, bonnie love,
It's when will ye be hain?
When the heather hills
are nine times brunt,
And o 'er ground green again,
Bonnie love,
and o 'er ground green again.
Oh, that's our long to bide o 'er,
That's our long fair hame,
The baby that's nay born yet,
Will be our long want in its name,
For nay love will be our
long want in its name.
He turned about his high horse he'd,
And fast a -whirled he,
And she kilted up her gay clothing,
And fast, fast followed she, Pony Love,
and fast, fast followed she.
The first in tune that they came to
He pocked her hose and sheen
And he bade her rue and return new
And nae more follow him
Bonnie love and nae more follow him
It's love for love that I do want
Love for love again,
it's hard when I like ye say we'll,
and ye name me again.
Bonnie love and ye name me again.
The niece then to let thee come tell,
he bought her a brooch and a ring,
And he bade her rue and returnew,
And ne 'er follow him, bonnie love,
And ne 'er follow him.
It's love for love that I do want,
Love for love again.
It's hard when I like ye say will,
And ye name me again,
Bonnie Love and ye name me again.
The neest and tune that they can tell,
He booked her a widen ring,
And he bade her dry her rosy cheeks,
And he would tuck her with him.
Bonnie Love and he would
tuck her with him.
It's love for love that I do want,
love for love again.
And there's name but you for me,
bonnie love,
and there's name but you for me,
bonnie love,
and there's name but you for me.
There's comfort for the comfortless
and honey for the bee
And there's name for you but me,
bonnie love
And there's name for you but me,
bonnie love
And there's name for you but me
It's love for love that I hae got,
love for love again.
So turn your high horse, heed a boot,
and we will ride for hame.
Bonny love, and we will ride for hame.
