Sung by Anne Lorne Gillies
Aye waukin
O,
Waukin I am weary;
Sleep I can get nane
For thinkin oan my dearie;
Aye waukin O !
Simmer's a
pleasant time,
Leaves o' ev'ry colour;
The water rins ow'r the heugh,
An I long for my true lover.
Aye waukin O,
Waukin I am weary;
Sleep I can get nane
For thinkin oan my dearie;
Aye waukin O !
Lanely nicht
comes on
Aa the lave are sleepin'
I think oan my bonnie lad
And I bleer my e'en wi greetin.
Aye waukin O,
Waukin I am weary;
Sleep I can get nane
For thinkin oan my dearie;
Aye waukin O !
When I sleep
I dream;
When I wake I'm eerie;
Sleep I can get nane
For thinkin o' my dearie !
Aye waukin O,
Waukin I am weary;
Sleep I can get nane
For thinkin oan my dearie;
Aye waukin O !
