The Loch Tay Boat Song |
When I’ve done the work o day |
And I row my boat away |
Down the waters o Loch Tay |
When the evening light is fallin' |
And I look towards Ben lawyers |
Where the after glory glow |
And I dream on two Bright eyes |
With a merry mouth below |
Shes my beauteous nigh-ean ruadh |
Shes my joy and sorrow too |
And although she is untrue |
Well I cannot live without her |
For my hearts a boat in tow |
And Id give the world to know |
If she means to let me go |
As I sing hee-re, ho-ro |
Nighean ruadh your lovely hair |
Has more beauty I declare |
Than all the trasses fair |
From Killin and Aberfeldy |
Be they lint white, Brown or gold |
Be they blacker than the sloe |
They mean not as much to me |
Than the melting flake of snow |
Her dance is like the gleam |
O the sunlight on the stream |
And the song the wee folks sing |
Oh, they’re the songs she sings at milking |
But my heart is full of woe |
For last night she bade me go |
And the tears begin to flow |
As I sing Hee-ree, Ho-ro |
