Are Ye Sleeping Maggie |
| Mirk and rainy is the nicht |
| There’s no a star in a' the carry |
| Lightening gleams across the sky |
| And winds they blaw wi winter fury |
| O are you sleeping Maggie |
| O are you sleeping Maggie |
| Let me in, for loud the linn |
| Is roaring o’er the warlocks craigie |
| Fearfu' flows the boortree bank |
| The rifted wood roars wild and dreary |
| Loud the iron yett does clank |
| And cry of howlets mak me eerie |
| Aboon my breath I daurna speak |
| For fear I’ll rouse your wakeful daddie |
| Cauld’s the blast upon my check |
| O rise, O rise, my bonnie lassie |
| She’s op’ed the door, she’s let him in He’s cruist aside his dreeping plaidie |
| Ye can blow ye worst, ye winds and rain |
| Since Maggie noo I’m in aside thee |
| O noo that you’re wakin, Maggie |
| O noo that you’re wakin, Maggie |
| What care I for howlets cry |
| For roaring linn or warlock’s craigie. |
| sung by Ray Fisher on Willie’s Lady |
