- Bonnie Charlie's noo a wa', Safely owre the friendly main
Mony a heart will break in twa, Should he neer come back again
Will ye no come back again? Will ye no come back again?
Better lo'ed ye canna be, Will ye no come back again?
- Ye trust-ed in your Hie-land men, They trust-ed you dear Charlie:
They ken your hiding in the glen, Death or exile brav-ing
Chorus
- English bribes were a' in vain, Tho puir and puirer we maun be
Silver can-na buy the heart, That beats aye for thine and thee
Chorus
- We watch'd thee in the gloamin hour, We watch'd thee in the mornin' grey
Tho' thirty thousand pounds they git e, There is nane that wad betray
Chorus
- Sweets the lav-rocks note and lang, Liltin wildly up the glen
But aye to me he sings ae sang, Will ye no come back again
Chorus
Air - possibly Niel Gow jnr
Lyrics - Lady Nairne
