A Waukrife Minnie
(Robert Burns)
`Whare are you gaun, my bonie lass ?
Whare are you gaun, my hinnie?`
She answer`d me right saucilie-
`An errand for my minnie!`
`O whare live ye, my bonie lass?
O, whare live ye, my hinnie?`
`By yon burnside, gin ye maun ken,
In a wee house wi my minnie!`
But I foor up the glen at e`en,
To see my bonie lassie;
And lang before the grey morn cam,
She was na hauf sae saucy.
O, weary fa` the waukrife cock,
And the foumart lay his crawin!
He wauken`d the auld wife frae her sleep,
A wee blink or the dawin.
An angry wife I wat she raise,
And o`er the bed she brought her,
And wi a meikle hazel-rung
She made her a weel-pay`d dochter.
O fare, thee-weel, my bonie lass,
`O, fare, thee-weel, my hinnie!
Thou art a gay and a bonie lass,
But thou has a waukrife minnie!`
