Dougie Maclean - Ye Banks And Braes lyrics

Ye banks and braes o' bonnie doon How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair? How can ye chant ye little birds And i sae weary full o' care? Ye'll break my heart ye warbling birds That wanton through the flowery thorn Ye 'mind me o' departed joys Departed never to return Oft hae i roved by bonnie doon To see the rose and woodbine twine And ilka bird sang o' its love And fondly sae did i o' mine Wi' lightsome heart i pulled a rose Full sweet upon its thorny tree And my false lover stole my rose But ah she left the thorn wi' me
