Coming Through the Rye
by Robert Burns
(1759-1796)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coming thro the rye, poor body,
Coming thro the rye,
She draiglet a her petticoatie
Coming thro the rye.

O, Jennys a wat, poor body;
Jennys seldom dry;
She draiglet a her petticoatie
Coming thro the rye.

Gin a body meet a body
Coming thro the rye,
Gin a body kiss a body -
Need a body cry?

Gin a body meet a body
Coming thro the glen,
Gin a body kiss a body -
Need the warld ken?

My Hearts In The Highlands
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My hearts in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My hearts in the Highlands a-chasing the deer -
A-chasing the wild deer, and following the roe;
My hearts in the Highlands, wherever I go.
Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North
The birth place of Valour, the country of Worth;
Wherever I wander, wherever I rove,
The hills of the Highlands for ever I love.

Farewell to the mountains high coverd with snow;
Farewell to the straths and green valleys below;
Farewell to the forrests and wild-hanging woods;
Farwell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods.

My hearts in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My hearts in the Highlands a-chasing the deer
Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe;
My hearts in the Highlands, whereever I go.
