that grows in the glen:
For her yellow locks shining,
and beauty combining;
My charming young Nancy
if ye were my ain!
She's well shaped and slender,
true hearted and tender:
My charming young Nancy

and lovely embraces;

with the strength of my brain;
Believe me, my deary,
I'll still hold thee cheary,
My charming young Nancy
if ye were my ain.
