Lyrics:  

     Squire's Keenin' Song

O I have nae kissed my bonny lass
I have nae kissed her carnaptious lips
And I will nae know the heavenly bliss
Of a lyfe with my brave bonny lass.

O and even the wind does sigh alas
And all the wairld will cry out to miss
The sweetest taste of carnaptious lips
Of my lovely, kingly lass.

O lay me doon below the weeping ash
Let my soul go over moss and moor
For there be no kiss and there be no cure
For the loss of my fair fearsome lass.

O I have nae kissed my bonny lass
I have nae kissed her carnaptious lips
I will nae know the heavenly bliss
Of a lyfe with my brave bonny lass.

O lay me doon below the weeping ash
Let my soul go over moss and moor
For there be no kiss and there be no cure
For the loss of my fair fearsome lass.
