Birnie Bouzle Songtext
von The McCalmans

Gin ye′ll mairry me, lassie, at the kirk o' Birnie Bouzle
Till the day ye dee, lassie, ye will ne′er repent it

Ye will wear when ye are wed a kirtle and a Hieland plaid
And sleep upon a heather bed sae couthy and sae canty

Ye will gang sae braw, lassie, tae the kirk o' Birnie Bouzle
Little brogues an' a′, lassie, vow, but ye′ll be canty

Your wee bit tocher is but sma', but hodden grey will wear for a′
And I'll save my siller tae mak ye braw an′ ye will ne'er repent it

Gin ye′ll mairry me, lassie, at the kirk o' Birnie Bouzle
Till the day ye dee, lassie, ye will ne'er repent it

We′ll hae bonnie bairns an′ a', lassies fair an′ laddies braw
Just like their mither ane an' a′, an' yer faither he′s consented


Gin ye'll mairry me, lassie, at the kirk o' Birnie Bouzle
Till the day ye dee, lassie, ye will ne′er repent it

I′ll hunt the otter an' the brock,
The hart, the hare, the heather cock
An′ I'll pu′ ye limpets frae the rock tae mak yer dishes dainty

Gin ye'll mairry me, lassie, at the kirk o′ Birnie Bouzle
Till the day ye dee, lassie, ye will ne'er repent it

Ye will wear when ye are wed a kirtle and a Hieland plaid
And sleep upon a heather bed sae couthy and sae canty

Gin ye'll mairry me, lassie, at the kirk o′ Birnie Bouzle
Till the day ye dee, lassie, ye will ne′er repent it

Gin ye'll mairry me, lassie, at the kirk o′ Birnie Bouzle
Till the day ye dee, lassie, ye will ne'er repent it
