Parole de Bonnie Lass O' Fyvie

There once was a troop of Irish dragoons
Come marching down through Fyvie-O
And their captain fell in love wi' a very bonnie lass
And her name it was called pretty Peggy-O

There's many a bonnie lass in the glen of Auchterlass
There's many a bonnie lass in Gairioch-O
There's many a bonnie Jean in the streets of Aberdeen
But the flower of them all bides in Fyvie, O

Come down the stair, Pretty Peggy, my dear
Come down the stairs, Pretty Peggy-O
Come down the stairs, comb back your yellow hair
Tak' a last farewell to your mammy-O

It's braw, aye it's braw, a captain's lady for to be
And it's braw to be a captain's lady-O
It's braw to ride around and to follow the camp
And to ride when your captain he is ready-O

O I'll give you ribbons, love, and I'll give you rings
I'll give you a necklace of amber-O
I'll give you a silken petticoat with flounces to the knee
If you'll convey me doon to your chamber-O

What would your mother think if she heard the guineas clink
And saw the haut-boys marching all before you-O
O little would she think gin she heard the guineas clink
If I followed a soldier laddie-O

I never did intend a soldier's lady for to be
I never will marry a soldier -O
I never did intend to gang tae a foreign land
And I will never marry a soldier-O

I'll drink nae more o your claret wine
I'll drink nae more o your glasses-O
Tomorrow is the day when we maun ride away
So farewell tae your Fyvie lasses-O

The colonel he cried, mount, boys, mount,
The captain, he cried, o tarry-O
O tarry for a while, for another day or twa
Til I see if this bonnie lass will marry-O

+ de paroles

It was in the early morning, when we marched awa
O but our captain was sorry-O
The drums they did beat on the merry braes o' Gight
And the pipes played the lowlands of Fyvie-O

Long ere we came to the glen of Auchterless
We had our captain to carry-O
And long ere we won into the streets of Aberdeen
We had our captain to bury-O

Green grow the birks on bonnie Ythanside
And low lie the lowlands of Fyvie-O
The captain's name was Ned and he died for a maid
He died for the bonny lass of Fyvie-O ...
