NARRATIVE
ON PRINT -
'T
WAS on a sultry summer's day,
When Nature smiled in sunny May,
I met a lassie, fair and gay,
Amang the braes o' Cairnie.
Her gracefu' mien an' modest air
Proclaimed her fairest o' the fair,
But lured my heart to love's fell snare,
Amang the braes o' Cairnie.
The gowden locks that screened her broo,
Hung doon her cheeks o' rosy hue ;
Her lips were wat wi' honey dew,
The bonnie Lass o' Cairnie.
Her een were bright as starnies twa,
Her bosom white as virgin snaw
When Winter wreaths St. Mary's Law,
An' haps the knowes o' Cairnie.
Frae sic a face, frae sic a form
I felt the power o' ilka charm,
An' langed t' shield the fair frae harm,
The bonnie Lass o' Cairnie.
I said, 'My lass, gif sae it be
That ane sae fair could won wi' me,
I'll lo'e thee till the day I dee,
My bonnie Lass o' Cairnie.'
