Craigieburn Wood</p>
Sweet closes the ev'ning ieburn Wood,</p>
And blythely awaukens the morrow;</p>
But the pride o' the spring in the Craigieburn Wood</p>
yield to me nothing but sorrow.</p>
Chorus.—Beyond thee, dearie, beyond thee, dearie,</p>
And O to be lying beyond thee!</p>
O sweetly, soundly, weel may he sleep</p>
That's id in the bed beyond thee!</p>
I see the spreading leaves and flowers,</p>
I hear the wild birds singing;</p>
But pleasure they hae nane for me,</p>
While care my heart is wringing.</p>
Beyond thee, &c.</p>
I a tell, I maun na tell,</p>
I daur na for yer;</p>
But secret love will break my heart,</p>
If I ceal it nger.</p>
Beyond thee, &c.</p>
I see thee gracefu', straight and tall,</p>
I see thee sweet and bonie;</p>
But oh, what will my torment be,</p>
If thou refuse thy Johnie!</p>
Beyond thee, &c.</p>
To see thee in another's arms,</p>
In love to lie and nguish,</p>
