The Flowers of Edinburgh: In RSCDS Book 1, 1924
My love was once a bonnie lad,
He was the flower of a’ his kin,
The absence of his bonnie face
Has rent my tender heart in twain.
I day or night find no delight;
In silent tears I still complain;
And exclaim ‘gainst those my rival foes,
That ha’e ta’en from me my darling swain.
