Will Ye No' Come Back Again? |
Bonnie Charlie's noo awa Safely o'er the friendly main Mony a heart will break in twa Should he ne'er come back again. Chorus Will ye no' come back again? Will ye no' come back again? Better lo'ed ye canna be Will ye no' come back again? Ye trusted in your Hielan' men They trusted you, dear Charlie They kent your hiding in the glen Death or exile braving. English bribes were a' in vain Tho' puir, and puirer, we maurn be Siller canna buy the heat That beats aye for thine and thee. We watch'd thee in the gloamin' hour We watch'd thee in the mornin' grey Tho' thirty thousand pound they gie Oh, there is nane that wad betray! |
