Davie

  dainty davie
  now rosy may comes in wi' flowers,
  to deck her gay, green-spreading bowers;
  and now comes in the happy hours,
  to wander wi' my davie.
  chorus.—meet me on the warlock knowe,
  dainty davie, dainty davie;
  there i'll spend the day wi' you,
  my ain dear dainty davie.
  the crystal waters round us fa',
  the merry birds are lovers a',
  the scented breezes round us blaw,
  a wandering wi' my davie.
  meet me on, c.
  as purple morning starts the hare,
  to steal upon her early fare,
  then thro' the dews i will repair,
  to meet my faithfu' davie.
  meet me on, c.
  when day, expiring in the west,
  the curtain draws o' nature's rest,
  i flee to his arms i loe' the best,
  and that's my ain dear davie.
  meet me on, c.
