Lyrics composed by
John Henderson on the 13th of January, 2009
to part of Dan Casler's music for the song, 'Honey Bunch'.
The graun Niag'ra Fa's are braw;
An the richt majeestic Victoria Fa's an aa;
Bit gin Ah wis tae be gien some mair wales
Frae whaur waater ow'r auncient smeeth'd stanes skales,
'Twid be a wee peel an burns ye micht nae fin naarhan the eeswal
trails.
Ma bonnie weel hodden fa's ye'll see;
They are fair sma bit they're aisy oan the ee;
An syne amids the cweel ristfu bield wi its ow'r-hingin trees
Are the soons o its pirls whilk wull seen pit ye at yir ease.
Noo sit quait in late-Autumn's gowden licht;
Isn't fit ye can see there a graun an glorious sicht?
Mirror'd reflections in shadda'd lown-waater
Thit are sent doon there by the gloamin sin,
An gless-slitherin sheets thit jibble ow'r rocks till splyterly
they rin.
Ma bonnie weel hodden fa's ye've seen;
Tho sma wur they nae fair aisy oan yir een?
An syne amids the cweel ristfu bield wi its ow'r-hingin trees
Did the soons o its pirls whaur ye've been pit ye at yir ease? |
