Summer's a pleasant time
Flowers of every colour
The water runs o'er the heugh
And I long for my true lover!

Aye walking oh,
Walking still and weary
Sleep I can't get none
For the thinking on my dearie

When I sleep I dream
When I wake I'm erie
Sleep can I get none
For the thinking on my dearie

Aye walking oh
Walking still and weary
Sleep I can't get none
For the thinking on my dearie

Lonely night comes on
All the land is sleeping
I think on my bonny lad
And I blur my eyes with weeping

Aye walking oh
Walking still and weary
Sleep I can't get none
For the thinking on my dearie
