He-ree ho-ro my Bonnie wee girl He-ree ho-ro my fair one Will you come away, my love To be my own, my rare one? Smiling the land, shining the sea Sweet is the smell o' the heather Would we were younger, you and me The two of us together He-ree ho-ro my Bonnie wee girl He-ree ho-ro my fair one Will you come away, my love To be my own, my rare one? All the day long, out on the peat Then on the shore in the gloamin' Stepping it lightly with dancing feet And then together roamin' He-ree ho-ro my Bonnie wee girl He-ree ho-ro my fair one Will you come away, my love To be my own, my rare one? Laughter above, singin' below Tripping it lithesome and airy Could we be asking of life for more My own, my darling Mary? He-ree ho-ro my Bonnie wee girl He-ree ho-ro my fair one Will you come away, my love To be my own, my rare one?
