MacCrimmon's Lament |
Doon Coolin’s face the night is sailing |
The banshee croons her note of wailing; |
My blue eyen wi' sorrow are streaming |
For I noo will never return MacCrimmon |
No more, no more, no more MacCrimmon; |
In war nor in peace shall return MacCrimmon; |
Till dawns the sad day of doom and burning |
MacCrimmon is home no more returning |
The breeze on the bray is mournfully moaning; |
The brook in the hallow is plaintively mourning; |
But my blue eyen with sorrow are streaming |
For I noo will never return MacCrimmon |
No more, no more, no more MacCrimmon; |
In war nor in peace shall return MacCrimmon; |
Till dawns that great day of doom and burning |
MacCrimmon is home no more returning |
