Broom O' the Cowdenknowes
How blithe each morn was I to see
My lass came over the hill
she tripped the burn and ran to me
I met her wi good will
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
Hard fate that I should banished be
Gone way o'er hill and moor
Because I loved the fairest lass
That ever yet was born
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
Farewell, ye Cowdenknowes, farewell
Farewell all pleasures there
To wander by his side again
Is all I crave or care
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
My lass came over the hill
she tripped the burn and ran to me
I met her wi good will
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
Hard fate that I should banished be
Gone way o'er hill and moor
Because I loved the fairest lass
That ever yet was born
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
Farewell, ye Cowdenknowes, farewell
Farewell all pleasures there
To wander by his side again
Is all I crave or care
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
Oh the broom, the bonnie bonnie broom
Broom of the Cowdenknowes
Fain would I be in my own country
Herding his father's ewes
