o weary fa' the waukrife cock,
and the foumart lay his crawin!
he wauken'd the auld wife frae her sleep,
a wee blink or the dawin.
an angry wife i wat she raise,
and o'er the bed she brocht her;
and wi' a meikle hazel rung
she made her a weel-pay'd dochter.
o fare thee weel, my bonie lass,
o fare thee well, my hinnie!
thou art a gay an' a bonnie lass,
but thou has a waukrife minnie.
