Ecclefechan（1 / 1）

the lass o' ecclefechan

tune—“jack o' latin.”

gat ye me, o gat ye me,

o gat ye me wi' naething?

rock an reel, and spinning wheel,

a mickle quarter basin:

bye attour my gutcher has

a heich house and a laich ane,

a' forbye my bonie sel,

the toss o' ecclefechan.

o haud your tongue now, lucky lang,

o haud your tongue and jauner

i held the gate till you i met,

syne i began to wander:

i tint my whistle and my sang,

i tint my peace and pleasure;

but your green graff, now lucky lang,

wad airt me to my treasure.
