My Harry was a gallant gay, / Fu' stately strade he on the plain; / But now he's banish'd far away, / I'll never see him back again.

When a' the lave gae to their bed, / I wander dowie up the glen; / I set me down and greet my fill, / And aye I wish him back again. / O for him, &c.
O were some villains hangit high, / And ilka body had their ain! / Then I might see the joyfu' sight, / My Highland Harry back again. / O for him, &c.
