bonnie Hieland hills, The bonnie hills o' Scotland O! The bonnie Hieland hills. There are lands on the earth where the vine ever blooms, Where the air that is breathed the sweet orange perfumes; But mair dear is the blast the lane shepherd that chills As it wantons along o'er our ain Hieland hills. Oh! the bonnie Hieland hills. There are rich garden lands wi' their skies ever fair; But o' riches or beauty we mak na our care; Wherever we wander ae vision aye fills Our hearts to the burstin'--our ain Hieland hills. Oh! the bonnie Hieland hills.

Sax bonnie bairns had we In yon lane glen-- Lads an' lassies young an' spree, In yon lane glen; An' a blither family Than ours there cou'dna be, Beside the bonnie rowan bush In yon lane glen. Now my auld wife's gane awa' Frae yon lane glen, An' though summer sweet doth fa' On yon lane glen-- To me its beauty's gane, For, ala
