wandering willie—revised version

here awa, there awa, wandering willie,

here awa, there awa, haud awa hame;

e to my bosom, my ain only dearie,

tell me thou bring'st me my willie the same.

winter winds blew loud and cauld at our parting,

fears for my willie brought tears in my e'e,

wele now the simmer, and wele, my willie,

the simmer to nature, my willie to me!
