the moon was shining clearly;
I set her down, wi' right good-will
Amang the rigs o' barley:
I kent her heart was a' my ain;
I lo'ed her most sincerely;
I kiss'd her o'er and o'er again,
amang the rigs o' barley.

I lock'd her in my fond embrace;
her heart was beating rarely;
My blessings on that happy place
amang the rigs o' barley.
But by the moon and stars sae bright,
that shone that hour sac clearly:
She aye shall bliss that happy night,
amang the rigs o' barley.

Wha wad be a traitor knave?
Wha wad fill a coward's grave—
Wha sae base as be a slave?
