Oh, as I get doon by Strichen Toon, one misty mornin' early Heard a lassie sair lament for her true love ne'er returnin' Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, where oft times I been cheery Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, there I lost my dearie Well I'll put on my goon o' green, it's a forsaken token To tell the laddies roundabout that the bonds of love are broken Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, where oft times I been cheery Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, there I lost my dearie There's many a horse has snappert an' fa'n and risen again fu' rarely There's many a laddies that's lost 'is love an' gotten another right early Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, where oft times I been cheery Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, there I lost my dearie So I'll gang back to Strichen toon, where I was bred an' born in I'll get me another lad, who'll marry me high in the mornin' Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, where oft times I been cheery Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, there I lost my dearie Oh, as I get doon by Strichen Toon, one misty mornin' early Heard a lassie sair lament for her true love ne'er returnin' Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, where oft times I been cheery Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes, there I lost my dearie
