He-ree he-ro my bonnie wee girl
He-ree he-ro my fair one
Will you come away my love
To be my own my rare one
Smiling the land, shining the sea
Sweet is the smell o' the heather
Would we were younger you and me
The two of us together
Chorus
He-ree he-ro my bonnie wee girl
He-ree he-ro my fair one
Will you come away my love
To be my own my rare one
All the day long, out on the peat
Then on the shore in the gloaming
Stepping it lightly with dancing feet
And then together roaming
Chorus
Laughter above, singing below
Tripping it lithsome and airy
Could we be asking of life for more
My own my darling Mary
Chorus
