SONG
By Johw Q-. Smith.
Bonny lassie, guileless lassie, Lassie wi' the slae black cc; Kithesome lassie, blithesome lassi* Will y« gang wi' love an' me. - Tho* my hame be but a shielin', Tho' mj mailin' be but sma,' Sweet content is aye revealin,' Joys unkenned in lordly ha;' Hieland lakes are clear an' glassy, Hieland hills an' glens yell see; Hearts that ne'er wera proud or saucy Will a Hieland welcome gie. Bonny lassfe, guileless lassie, &c. We will climb the hills thagither, When our sheep roam o'er the fell, We will cull the purple heather Bloomin' like yere bonnie sel;' Nature's gifts are aye the rarest, Nature's smiles are sweet to see. Nature's joys are aye the fairest, Gang an' share them a' wi' me. Bonny lassie, guileless lassie, &c.
