Robin Shure in Hairst
(Robert Burns)

I gaed up to Dunse,
  To warp a wab o' plaiden,
At his daddie's yet,
  Wha met me but Robin!

ch.  Robin shure in hairst,
        I shure wi' him:
     Fient a heuk had I,
        Yet I stack by him.

Was na Robin bauId,
   Tho' I was a cotter?
Play'd me sic a trick,
  An me the Eller's dochter!

Robin promis'd me
   A' my winter vittle:
Fient haet he had but three
   Guse-feathers and a whittle!


tune: Robin shure in hairst (251)
