The Bonnie Earl Of Moray
Ye Hielan's an' ye Lowlan's
O, where have
ye been?
They hae slain the Earl of Moray
And lain him on the green.
He was a braw gallant
And he rode at
the ring.
An' the bonnie Earl of Moray
O, he micht hae been the king!
O, lang may his lady
Look frae the castle
Doune,
Ere she see the Earl of Moray
Come soundin' through the toun.
Now way be to thee, Huntly
And wherefore
did ye sae?
I bade you bring him wi' you
But forbade you him to slay.
He was a braw gallant
And he play'd
at the ball
An' the Bonnie Earl of Moray
Was a flower among them all.
Lang may his lady
Look from the Castle
Doune,
Ere she see the Earl of Moray
Come soundin' through the toun.
Ye Hielan's and ye Lowlan's
O where hae
ye been?
They have slain the Earl of Moray
An' laid him on the green.
He was a braw gallant
And he rode at
the gluve
An' the Bonnie Earl of Moray
O, he was the Queens' true love.
Lang will his lady
Look frae the Castle
Doune,
Ere she see the Earl of Moray
Come soundin' through the toun.
