Էջ 109 - Sin' the fa' o' the year. Sair trouble cam our gate, And made me, when it cam, A bird without a mate, A ewe without a lamb. Our hay was yet to maw, And our corn was to shear, When they a' dwined awa' In the fa' o
Էջ 216 - He turned him round and right about, Upon the Irish shore, He gave his bridle reins a shake, With, adieu for ever more, my love ! Adieu for ever more ! " The soldier fra the war returns. The merchant fra the main ; But I ha'e parted fra...
