Far’s the gate ye hae to gang, dark's the night and eerie,
Far’s the gate ye hae to gang, &c.
Far’s the gate ye hae to gang, &c.
O stay this ae night wi’ your love and dinaa gang and leave me.
It’s but a night and half a day that I’ll leave my dearie,
It’s but a night and half a day, &c
It’s but a night and half a day, &c.
Whene’er the sun gaes west the loch I’ll come again and see thee.
Dinna gang my bonny lad dinna gang and leave me,
Dinna gang my bonny lad, &c.
When a’ the lave are sound asleep I’m dull and eerie,
An’ a the lee lang night I'm sad wi’ thinking on my dearie.
O dinna think bonny lassie I’m gaun to leave you
Dinna think bonny lassie I’m gaun to leave you,
Dinna think bonny lassie I’m gaun to leave you,
Whene’er the sun gaes out o' sight I’ll come again and see thee.
