So saddle to me the black horse he cry'd
my servant shall ride on the grey ;
and I will go to bonny Aberdeen,
forthwith to bring her away.
They were not a mile from Aberdeen,
a mile but only one,
Till he met with his two daughters,
but away was Lady Jean;
⟨O⟩ where is your sister maidens?
where is your sister, now?
⟨O⟩ where is your sister, maidens?
that she's not walking with you?
⟨O⟩ pardon us, they did say;
pardon us, they did say;
Lady Jean is with captain Ogilvie,
and from him she would not stay.
Then he came to bonny Aberdeen,
and down upon the green,
There did he see captain Ogilvie,
a-training of his men.
